Used Golf Cart Model Determination

[guajardobob]

I am having difficulty determining the year and model for my newly acquired Western golf cart. I have done a good amount of research and still do not have a definitive answer. I found a number, stamped into the frame, under the seat on the passenger side. The number is 10008411886, see pictures attached. I wasn't 100% sure on the last digit, could be a 5 but looks like a 6 to me.

Picture 1 shows an Ezgo Marathon frame. The controller has been mover forward and a 7th 6v battery has been added professionally. You have what looks like (without seeing body pics) a 1990 - 94 Western

Scotty,
Thank you for the reply. I am including some body pictures if that helps to better identify the model and year. With the model and year information I am hoping to figure out if the controller and solenoid will support me going from 42v lead acid to 48v lithium (ease of maint). I’d like to know if I increase 6 volts to 48 if I would need to also replace the controller and solenoid? Any help would be appreciated.

ScottyB, did the pictures help narrow it down? Thoughts on ability to go up to 48 volt lithium?

The motor will handle 48 easily. The controller will probably run a while at 48, but I would be prepared to switch it over to 48 when it dies.

Shout out to ScottyB for his advice and help in selecting upgrade parts!

As I dug into my project, I collected more information and wanted to share information (two way street) since I assume the components are factory and have not been modified. I pulled out and looked more closely at the Solenoid, Controller and Motor and found that the cart has:
1. Motor - GE Motors 48 volt, 5/11.5 HP, model 58C49JB299A, Amp 98/214
2. Solenoid - 36 vold, White Rodgers 70-120224-5 DC continuous coil
3. Controller - Curtis PMC 1205-101 24-36 volt, 400 AMP

It was hard to read the data from the motor, and I could not find online via google confirmation of the specs using the model number.

As a result, I opted to upgrade the controller and coil to better work with the 48 volt lithium battery upgrade from the original 42 volt lead acid battery set up.
