98 Club Car DS speed upgrade??
What’s up y’all. Excuse my ignorance, but I’m working on my moms 98 club car DS 48v and she would like more torque & speed. What are my best options here? The only other electric cart I’ve done was my stepfathers old 36v DS, which we used scotty b’s 48v conversion. This is different though because it’s not a resistor cart, so I don’t think I need a conversion kit? I see controllers online but is that all I need? A plug and play $500 controller?
Any help would be appreciated Thanks |

Re: 98 Club Car DS speed upgrade??
Is that a Series or Regen2 cart? (FNR Lever or Fwd/Rev Rocker switch & Run/Tow switch)
Series you can probably just upgrade her motor and feel a good difference in both torque and speed. https://www.revolutiongolfcars.com/p...ries-48v-22mph Or a PlumQuick Bandit Upgrade https://plumquick.com/bandit-electric-motor-golf-cart/ Regen2 you can get an Alltrax Regen2 controller made for that cart and get more speed, torque and user controlability. https://www.revolutiongolfcars.com/motor-controllers Of course with either you can go all-in with a motor, controller, solenoid, cables, etc. but that will be a lot more than $500. |

Just trying to figure out my best option for around 500, so just a motor upgrade is my best bet?

Re: 98 Club Car DS speed upgrade??
Not sure of current speed. Has brand new batteries, more interested in getting more torque of it. The campground were at has big hills, so trying to improve that if anything. I just want to order something today and don’t want to regret the purchase! Would I benefit more from an upgraded motor, or do they sell plug and play controllers for a 98 with a forward reverse lever?
