Default What solenoid should I use

I have a western golf cart 42 volt with 2 gauge cables and alltrax dcx controller. I have not had good luck with suggested HD solenoids MZJ200Das I went through a couple of them and I need one now,so I'm looking at a MZJ400D super heavy duty solenoid from Scottyb but don't if I should order a 48V or 36-48v. I have been using 48 volt. Now I see they have a New HD solenoid model SW180. I want the best solenoid but don't know what to order. Suggestions?

Solenoids prefer to operated below rather than above their rated coil rating. Use a 48v solenoid in a 42v system
There is no reason the MZJ200 solenoid is not sufficient for a 400a comtrol. However if you wish to upgrade try the top stud SW180 with it's magnetic blowout feature.

39 minutes from purchase to shipping?
Don't tell people that...
They will expect it all the time.
