D&D Speed&Torque vs. D&D High Torque
I found these two motors on East Coast Customs web site. I am currently working on a cart build (1998 TXT 36 volt cart) to use for off roading and hunting. I have posted some other questions about runnning stock 36 volt series motors off of 48 volt systems with upgraded amps (400 to 500 amp controllers). From my responses I now know it will work as long as I do not stall the motor out in extreme terrain. So this is one option I have for the project which allows me to use parts on hand.
However, when I build this cart I don't want to have to go back at a later date and modify/change any of the components due to lack of performance. So my question is, "Has anyone used these two motors on a 48 volt system?" Which motor would you recommend? Here are the spec about the motors:

Re: D&D Speed&Torque vs. D&D High Torque
Well the torque gain with both motors is the same so why not go with the one that will gain you a little speed also? I have used the 8.3 HP motor on a few builds and it has always performed great. The last one I used it on was 48 volts with 500 amp alltrax and it would run 23 MPH and had great torque.

Re: D&D Speed&Torque vs. D&D High Torque
I'm running the DnD speed/torque motor along with an Alltrax 4855, complete 2 ga. wiring throughout the entire cart. I'm also turning 26x10x12 g-force trilobite tires (a knock off maxxis bighorn) and I'm almost running 30 mph. My batteries are a little over two year old Trojan T-875's. I love this motor, from a standstill when I floor it, it will tote the front tires about 10 feet and 6 inches high. And these tires aren't the lighter ones out there.

Re: D&D Speed&Torque vs. D&D High Torque
Boke - does an extra 100 amps and 12 more volts give that much more power?
I'm 36 with a 400 amp AXE and a D&D - I max at 21 |

Re: D&D Speed&Torque vs. D&D High Torque
Both motors boast the same rpm, so I don't see how one would go any faster than the other, but it should be able to tackle hills with more hp.
