Re: 2001 PDS for field and hauling... looking for setup advice
I think your current "weak link" is gonna be the controller. I think the motor will suit your needs OK, as long as you are being realistic about the mud it will see. Also, a weak link on every 36v txt ever made was the stock solenoid, a better one should be on the to-do list.

Re: 2001 PDS for field and hauling... looking for setup advice
Yes, if you want to see for your self, clip your volt meter leads on each of the large solenoid terminals. Then drive the cart. Do a full throttle start while a buddy watches the volt meter. Any voltage reading shown on the meter is how many Volts were "lost" while passing through the solenoid (that energy is transformed into heat, not motion at the wheels). The same type test can be used to catch bad battery cables, and even energy lost in the controller.

As for the reed switch, most people just bypass them. My 2008 came from the factory with it bypassed. |

Re: 2001 PDS for field and hauling... looking for setup advice
You can do okay on mild terrain with the stock control as long as you don't go too far away from the original designed use of the cart.
But for fun and practical performance just put a XCT400 control and 200a solenoid on it and you won't wipe the grin off your face any time soon |
