Super clean install. Amazing work. Thank you for documenting this process.

Looks great, glad to see the old series carts getting some love!

We did this...love it. Cart now flies.

Nice video, thanks. I recently built a homebrew 36v LifePO4 battery and to make the same conversion for my cart (2004 EZ-Go TXT). I like your idea of the stud junction blocks and will add them to my setup. I didn't think to test the cart speed with the old lead acid batteries but will definitely test them with the new battery. I'm thinking of adding a speed chip as well, so it will be good to know the existing speed.

Great video as always!

Nice video man keep up the great work!

Great timing on this video for me. I have a 48 volt 105AH LifePO4 DIY bank taking it's initial charge as I type. It uses 16 EVE 105AH cells. I also have a renogy 300 watt panel as the roof with a Renogy Boost charge controller on it. At this moment the cart still has lead acid batteries in it. 1988 Club Car DS. It was a 36 volt resistor cart I swapped a 48 volt bank in from another cart. It's still the old single solenoid resistor coil system but everything has been working very well. I can't wait to make the Li swap. Waiting on the BMS and a few other pieces yet. I can NOT hardly believe the speed difference you got 5 MPH impressive!

When taking the wheels off that we’re installed for moving this battery around, I noticed it sounded like one but fell off inside the battery on each corner. Is that something that you experienced as well?

Where are you located to get the gamecock cart? I live in Spartanburg sc. great video .

I have the same setup in my 36v txt Is benefit to upgrading wiring in quick connects and to motor to 2awg wiring??

Do you know how to change that Foward/reverse lever to a panel type switch??

Could you recommend a cart to upgrade? What’s the best and most cost efficient cart to upgrade?

Definitely a bit more pep from the drop in weight as well as the higher voltage. I believe those lithium packs are 40V. Series motors respond directly to voltage. My TXT’s were doing 13 to 14mph and I doubled voltage to 72V, stock motor forklift controller, and my speed increased to 27MPH. These series motors can take a lot of voltage. I’m using 12V deep cycle Walmart batteries, full speed range is about 15 miles. Looking to build a liPo pack. I then added a 7th battery to push me to 84V, carts runs 31MPH, very peppy. I’m m going to try stock wheels this week, I think I’ll be able to smoke them

Very cool! What part of South Carolina are you in?

I’m thinking about putting a 6 inch lift on my 08 Club car Precedent I’m finally thinking about fixing it up

What size battery stud did you use ?

Any suggestions on where to pick up a project cart at a reasonable price? Ebay is either asking a premium or the cart is junk. It doesn't seem to have a middle ground. Any other sources you use to find something decent? Great content, BTW. 👍

You tell us not to isolate two of the 6 volt batteries to run the lights due to putting more stress on those two batteries, however you did not mention how / what is the proper way to do it

How much did you pay for that cart and where did you find it?

I have a 97 club car ds with the same crown (dead) batteries. I bought them used 5yrs ago. They're done! I ordered 3 Dakota 12v 60ah lithium. I'm done messing around with acid lead. Those Dakotas will outlast me.

A note, humbly, At 5:20, you refer to the "charger receptacle", however I believe this is actually the charger D-plug, which is inserted into the cart receptacle, which is connected to the battery pack, located on the cart body and receives the D-plug. Minor terminology point. Also, at 6:20, you remark the "receptacle" can only go together one way, because of "this locator. Square female, and square male". The D-plug can only go together one way, because its shaped like the letter "D", in order to prevent incorrect insertion. The "male locator" you point to is actually a magnet that opens the reed switch located in the receptacle when the D-plug is inserted. This disables the controller so the buggy cannot be moved when the charger is plugged into the cart.

That ol’ cart is in pretty good shape. Any plans for the old lead? I would be interested.

I’ve got the same battery in my ezgo. I’m now on my second one. The first one was never really right. Took BB about 6 months to finally realize that. Don’t think I would do it again. I live in a hilly area. I really doubt I could get 5-8 miles out of a charge. Want even pull a small slope with me my wife and 2 small children. I’m going to try a aftermarket controller. Awesome idea on the charging cable. I converted mine to Anderson but would had preferred your way. Thanks for the video and help.

I have a 85 ezgo marathon. Thinking and wondering if it would be worth doing this to it

Nice job. There are a couple of things I question about the swap. First of all, I doubt that that there will be many conversions where people would install a battery that is 2 or 3 times the value of the cart and secondly I generally question the need for such a large battery in the first place. I know everyone's needs are different, but that battery is probably capable of traveling 50 or 60 miles between charges. I just installed a 35 ah battery in my Club Car that weighs 28 lbs and reaches a top speed of 20.mph with 2 people on board. It will probably give me about 17 miles of range, which I will never use. We do 18 holes of golf and could easily do another 9. Also, the cost is much lower. The lithium battery cost me about the same as 4 good lead acid units. The charger and ancillories are to only additional cost. I would like to see you do a similar swap. Most retailers push big batteries 100 ah or more which is probably overkill for most people. I have yet to see anyone do this on KZfaq.

How do you run the 12 volt accessories?

Ryan, can you come up a video of these lithium batteries whether can handle the hill climb test. We love to figure out whether its bms can handle that or not.🍸

Hi 10 percent on batteries that cost the price of a car reall?

So did you not change the controller on this old cart to get the batteries to work?

Would you recommend the Amazon lithium batteries ie: Brand: FLLYROWER FLLYROWER 36V 100AH Lifepo4 Battery Grade A Cells with 100A BMS Lithium Iron Phosphate Batteries 4000~15000 Deep Cycles 3840WH Perfect for Golf Cart Trolling Motor RV Camping Car Solar System Which are about 1/2 the price but not sure how long they last?

My Yamaha cart got flooded during the hurricane with salt water. I am rebuilding it from scratch. Want to buy the 48 v navitas controller and the 400 or 600 amp motor. And the complete wiring harness. If I were to go lithium what battery do you recommend. I need to run 25 mph for about 15 to 20 miles, great videos, you know your carts.

I just ordered the Allied 2 battery Lithium kit. Their batteries are the exact same size as a Trojan T-105, and drop right in the same spot. Looks like a simple install, should be here in two weeks. Someone said I need to get a balance equalizer. Does anyone know anything about that..?

Love your video and your golf cart can you tell me how to put how fast I’m wrong on my phone I don’t know wow can you explain to me what app to go to appreciate it good video buddy Cajun land Church point Louisiana

I bought a 1999 36v txt for $2k , it had 3 new 12v deep cycle batteries in it , I only have about 30-45 min ride time on a full charge , then I end up charging it for another 3-5 hours , the cart is in great shape , I feel as I've gotten a good deal on it but i have a hard time paying $2,200 for this battery system given that's more than the cart , so my question to you ryan is , is the another alternative that's cost effective in my situation , can you point a subscriber in a better direction, would like to have Distance on a use . Thanks again

Would be interesting to see what kind of range you get with this battery as well.

Sooooo, now I'm between this single big battery, or 2 of the enjoybot 36v 100AH. I'm not sure why the two enjoybots are closer to double the capacity, but only $100 more because of their free shipping compared to how expensive Big battery is to ship. If you HAD to choose?

Where can I find the kit to hook up my lithium battery I have a 2017 club car president?

i need to do this but am scared to fuck somenthing up lol

I have an older EzGo golf cart with six 6 volt batteries so is this convertible to lithium battery power ?

Should I leave my non lithium club car plugged in all the time when it’s not in use?

That's the battery I'm wanting get for my Txt 36v How much does the battery cost mine is a 2000 Ezgo Thanks bud

36 volt controller with 48 volt battery pack?

You are the EV cart guru. If I were to invest $2,000 in a lithium battery, wouldn't you want to upgrade to 48V or even 72V and also upgrade to a Navitas motor? Go big or go home. Good video.

Are you in South Carolina?
