Yeah I thought about that last night. I may just go ahead and get a piece of steel plate cut out to mount the switch in and then mount the switch to the body. That will give me plenty of clearance. The other thing I thought of was heat. If the terminals build up a lot of heat they melt the battery pack just a little where thye touch. There is probably only an area the size of a bb where they touch.

Where can I order this motors? They look well made. Can I use this with my stock controller and solenoid or would I need to upgrade? Thanks!

A buddy of mine did this install in his Marathon. We were lucky that his batteries were stacked under the seat with a space in the middle rather than one side like your TXT.

Worked pretty slick though. He picked up like 4 or 5 mph & quite a bit of torque.

Got the new EMP installed! That baby registered 21 mph on the GPS!! Getcha some of that!!!!

I am going to modify the switch kit so it clears the battery. I zam going to leave it in the same spot, just trim down the posts that the bolts go through about 3/8". That will give me enough clearance to completely clear the battery and not cause any binding in the switch.

I think you will be fine with the motor from EMP..........they stand behind their work and have great customer service. No matter what the product or service, if you do good work.........I'm all for letting people know and everyone wins
