2001 Club Car
This is my first cart, and I put a 6 inch Jakes Lift on it,with some 23 inch tires. I really like the cart and would like to use it for hunting and was looking for advise on how to get a little more torque out of it? Not really looking for speed though. And just curious how many others use a cart like this for hunting?
Thanks |

Re: 2001 Club Car
well, provide some more information about the cart so we can see what kind it is exactly. usually to get more torque you can put a different controller on it and just run the stock motor, but it all depends on how much more torque youre wanting

Re: 2001 Club Car
Statistics show that next to golf, hunting is the next most use for a golf cart.

Re: 2001 Club Car
Not sure what all info. you guys might need. But its just a plain old 48 volt golf cart. I guess maybe they call it the DS?

Re: 2001 Club Car
Your cart is a 48V, DS with regenerative braking. The regen system makes upgrading a little more difficult. I converted mine to series but it is not cheap. There are also motor upgrades just for regen systems but I don't have any experience with them.

Re: 2001 Club Car
Ok, I will check into it. So can I still do a controller upgrade or a motor upgrade or possibly have to do both?

Re: 2001 Club Car
Start with a 400 amp controller and then add the motor if needed
Make sure you get a controller specifically for a Club Car with a SepEx (seperately excited) motor & regen (regenerative) braking |
