I love this video! Sickest editing skills! My son loves this video. Imma be doing the same mod to my son's power wheels silverado. Already did the 18v mod with the screw in the gear shift removed for high mode. Steering mod for better turning radius. Rubber on the tires. Now this motor upgrade will top it off! From dad to dad thanks for the video!
Did you swap for the 775 motors AND do the 18V conversion? He never mentions if he changed to higher voltage or kept the original 12V, so I’ve been wondering…
Bought a used one of these yesterday. 12 volt batteries seem to be dead. They aren't charging fully. So ordered a new battery and charger and looking at the dewalt upgrade.
Nice video, but for everyone who actually wants to do it, you can buy a whole replacement new custom gearbox which already has a 775 motor bolted to it for less than $30 a piece on any of the Chinese shopping sites (can’t mention them or YT will delete my comment). The motors themselves are about $9-10 a piece delivered.
It's a good video but it would have been better if u could have showed the speed difference between the two motor or somehow show the difference in speed and torque to c if its actually worth spending the money for the upgrade
Do not wait for the motors to burn up cause they will not. It is up to you to make this decision. If you're waiting for your motors to burn your kids will grow faster. Make the change. Never wait again not for nothing it will be worth it if you make this life change on the whim of a strangers comment
I feel like their video contest was more aimed towards an instructional video... Most people that search power wheel upgrades are wanting instructions, not "I did this and this, now here's my kid". Don't get me wrong, good video, but honestly it was a waste of time for people wanting to know step by step how to change out a power wheels motor.
I make videos that make me happy, simple as that. My son wanted a video of him riding his dune buggy and he constantly watches this video. He feels like a rockstar. Honestly I could care less about a contest, it was simply a good reason to make a video for my son. There are plenty of other pages that are power wheels specific for folks to watch. This will never be that page.
Exactly the motor went on our dune racer this video doesn’t help at all on how to do the replacement. I’m not a mechanic but I am educated just need to actually see how it is done.
We had two of these power wheels in our neighborhood, I ended up running them on a ryobi 20v battery with a buck regulator to drop it down to 12v but its awesome to see that there are indeed 20v motors we can get to just run off the batteries straight. We've got a stripped gearbox on one now any recommendations?
$100 for the motors?? you can get 775 for $15...( the problem is, it has lower RPM) Not worry about motors...I have plenty of ($20) 3650 3300kv brushless motors and 80Amps esc.($25).it'll have twice the power of a brushed 550. I also have lots of 4076 2250KV (775) with 150A (4-6 cells- 16v-24v). You just have use a Y harness with 2-ea esc... get electric SKATE BOARD esc It;s the PLASTIC GEARs in the gear box... It's not the second gear that will strip..either...It's the Third gear ...with the bigger teeth from all the torque/or braking. There's ways around it...just install a live axle like a go kart 1000 watt brushed 36v-48 ( under $100 with Esc and throttle) depending on the kid 500watt 36V is more than plenty ( 1000watt is only $5 more). You dont have to run it on 48V...until they get older...it's most for over heating protection.... Most of the money are on batteries... or...be on the look out for E 200-E300 used razor scooter The have 350 watt brushed/and esc..You have to fine a way to mount the spocket/brake.. to the plastic piece ( between the motor and gear box.)..or fabricate one. it'll do 12 -15 mph
Did u end up running the dewalt 20v with the 775 motors if so did the gearbox hold up or did u end up doing a gearbox upgrade as well I'm looking at upgrading my son's thanks
I just put this together. When I was tightening the bottom stearing stem bolt up the weird wrinch it comes with slipped off and I smashed me right in my eye lol. Black eye for Christmas.
All man i hate putting those things together. I got one for my nice a couple weeks ago I'm one of those guys that don't need the instructions manual. Lol 😕
Just built my 3 yr old Daughter's purple Dune Extreme and charging the battery as I type this. Looking forward to her reaction on Xmas morning. I appreciate the video and will definitely keep the upgrades in mind!
hey question for you i just installed these in my daughters dune racer along with the 24v battery upgrade and running in the high gear I'm only seeing maybe 10 mins of continuous runtime. are you getting that as well? thanks
No we get about an hour. That being said, I’m using two rather large batteries wired to make 24V. How are you getting 24V and what size batteries are you using?
@@KeystoneCarry I ordered the upgraded motors 775 along with the 24v battery upgrade with upgraded switches and brake reduction from MLtoys and on high peed only getting about 10 mins runtime. i emailed them they just said to follow the break in process which i did but while doing that one motor would not spin up like the othe other motor and would stop while other motor spins fast. maybe that could be the reason? IDK, i emailed them again just waiting on that
Do the batteries have an amp/hour rating? Our yard is also almost completely flat and I keep the grass short. Hills and tall grass will affect run time too
My kid's asking me to make his Mustang faster. I've already done full electrical mods (fashers, low/high beams, fog lamps, underglow, instrumentation etc) - It'll be stored for the winter soon, but I think over the winter I will order the motors to make it faster for him. Kid already figured out how to powerslide it and do 180s...
Darn it I guess I have to do the same thing for my kids truck 😂. I gave it a battery size upgrade it's a 7 amp hour 24 volt battery. Ice stack two more to it giving it 21 amp hours or so. At 24volts but the motors seems to give up after few laps of off road travel
The gears in the gear box won't strip? My nephew I got him this same power wheels for Christmas. I got Small rubber tiree from a small quad, cut out the sidewalls and slid them on to the plastic tires it came with. It gave it much better grip and seems its a bit faster. I know it's probably already putting alot more stress on the gearbox tho. Im guessing if i added these motors it will most definitely cause them to mess up? What do you think? Do they sell any gears to replace the plastic ones it comes with?
Hey man just subscribed loved your video on the Vertx gamut 2.0, just bought one myself come in in Saturday, can’t wait! Anyway do those motors work with any power wheels or are they vehicle specific? My kids have and Escalade and a quad that are begging for more power
They aren't really faster since the gearing stayed the same, they're just more powerful. The biggest speed upgrade is when going to a higher voltage battery.
I can't imaging being as miserable as you. My son LOVES this video to this day. I made it for him, not some beta punk on the internet. Go take some Testosterone and keep your lips zipped a bit more often.
I just installed the 775 motor upgrade in the power wheels dune racer. After installation we tried it and it runs great for a minute and then stops and the battery needs to be disconnected and reconnected for it to start again. Do you have any idea of what to troubleshoot before I have to take the whole car apart again? If one of the connections to the motor comes loose or it not contacting enough would that cause the whole car to shut down? When you step on the pedal nothing happens and there is no sound coming from any of the components. Your help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Hey buddy, I’m upgrading my sons power wheel car, is the same as yours is a dune extreme! I got the 775 motors but they came without pinion gears ⚙️ what size should I buy?
Did you simply hook them up in parallel or did you use a controller? I’m thinking of that upgrade but haven’t seen instructions on using dual batteries.
@@mrbrian87 yup..dual 18v 5ah in parallel. Look up my tutorial videos. Search my username "altered component" I have a handful of powerwheels build videos. Hit me up there with any questions

me ayudas a descifrar como hiciste todo eso,, yo quiero comprar uno pero no se si sean suficientemente rapidos para mi hijo de 7 años.
Did you swap for the 775 motors AND do the 18V conversion? He never mentions if he changed to higher voltage or kept the original 12V, so I’ve been wondering…
Can I get a parts list? Also, did you end up using the 20V lithium to power the new motors?
Only issue with thw video is that you upgraded the motors and showed the car going in slow-mo the whole time.
Best father in the world
Hope you have a righteous ride Bennet! Good work to the pops.
U start video off like it’s a war story lol
Keystone carry really sums up what this dude is into 😂
It's impossible to tell how fast it goes when you put the video in slow motion. 🤦♂️
Did you have to mod the gear boxes for the 775’s to fit?
That’s a great question! Like to hear the answer!
My son has that same car. Where did you get those tires?
The intro is too funny

Just take it apart and figure it out...
Can you please tell where did you get motors etc? My son has the same power wheel and keeps burning the motors
Ebay?
Thanks for not actually showing how you did anything!! That was awesome! Wish someone would actually put an instructional video up!
Exactly the motor went on our dune racer this video doesn’t help at all on how to do the replacement. I’m not a mechanic but I am educated just need to actually see how it is done.
Why didn’t u put a link to the motors
Can send a link with everything to up grade I have the same exact one for my daughters
I’m just now assembling my son’s new dune racer extreme. How do I make it to go to the higher speed?
Remove retaining screw found on the shifter using a philips head screw driver
Super super helpful, didnt know it could go faster

You can go on amazon and order all new motors and gear boxes mad cheap . 550 motors and gear boxes like $30 for both sides 👍

Way to over dramatize a kids toy upgrade lol
Did you have to upgrade the batteries or you stayed with 12v? Some people are doing 24 v upgrade. Thanks

Does the orange wire from wire harness go to black wire to motor and blue wire to red wire?

how much were the motors, roughly?
Did you keep the same battery?
How much faster are the new motors compared to the old?
They aren't really faster since the gearing stayed the same, they're just more powerful. The biggest speed upgrade is when going to a higher voltage battery.
@@KeystoneCarry no entedi, es para evitar q se dañen mas rapido? pero igual tienen la misma velocidad?
Thank you for this video.... I hope to upgrade my daughter PW soon...
Did you used the same 12v battery.
Did the pinion gears stay on the motor with just the set screw? Mine fell off almost right away. They didn’t stand up to all the torque.
no entiendo,, como hiciste? se te daño el motor?

Are you using the stock battery? Power wheels batteries have a built-in breaker. If you upgraded the motors, that may be tripping.

Good video. I found that doing a dual Lithium battery upgrade is the way to go for a safe more power, quicker charging, and longer drive time.
