Re: Starting my 81 DS rebuild.
I'm hopefully trading in my 84 today. Never done anything to it in the five years I've owned it. Upgrade wise that is, but its a beater and time for something worth spending some money on. Probably not too too much though. The "new" one will be a 96 36V. After joining and reading a lot of posts in attempt to learn, I'm afraid about how much money I may end up spending. I'm already thinking 48V conversion when battery time comes, which likely wont be long.
Good luck on your build and let us know how it goes. |

Re: Starting my 81 DS rebuild.
CC 48v are over rated in my opinion. 36v Ezgo DCS and PDS carts will run circles around them.
P.S. A 36v CC running on 48v will out perform a 48v CC Of course you can always find a 48v cart and stuff a 36v motor in it.... But stay away from the Regen I and II carts, again just my opinion. Look forward to the build Pauly |

scotty i agree but my point was why buy a 36 volt cart and than spend all that money to upgrade to a 48 volt cart..............just buy the 48 volt cart instead and than if you want just drop a 36 volt motor in it...........much cheaper than the other way.....................but both my 48 volt carts have 36 volt motors in them and by all means yes stay away from the reagans................................ |
