I'm out in my 40 series torque converter straight to the reverse gearbox without using a bushing I just ordered a 5/8 bore driven clutch and then drilled and tapped the shaft to hold it in place. They also have the new 40/780 series torque converter reverse gearboxes, I own both and this new one is awesome!
thank you for sharing real nice build on your cart. I looking to add reverse transfer to my par car was electric now gas 18 hr need to find right transfer unit for 1 inch shaft motor
i would recomend you put a big spring holding the front of the rear engine/axle subfram upward to relieve tension from the leaf springs. i have a similar 212 golf cart build
I loved the video, i do have a question on how did you make the gas pedal work to pull on the throttle arm.. I been lost on that connection part, any parts i need to buy or fabricate to make it work? thanks for the video
you done agreat job! im thinking of doing my 40 series cvt direct to reverse gearbox too like yours. my question is how well has the gearbox stood up to to bigger load from the 40 series driven pully and big block??
👍👍👍👍👍 Man you did a great job on this one!!! It's a clean looking one. To another commitmentor I told I have two carts that needs converting. So I'm glad to have found your video to get a good layout to do mine. Be so kind to tell me , how has the transmission held up so far? Do you pull anything with your cart ? Also do the belts last long on the torque converter? I thank you again for the video.
i blew the forwards gear out of my gas yamaha gas cart and with the parts being $680 for an input shaft and the forward gear being discontinued i figured go live axle with this box i got the gear box from ebay said 2-16HP for $172 but theres other videos saying the 420 will break it so im glad to see thats not true for me ill run it if it fails it will only be $172 to replace the whole gearbox the stock transaxle lasted 650km in 3 years no maintenance so i should be good
Nice looking build, I've got an almost identical setup on a sxs atv. You said that you put a bushing on the driven pulley to bring it out farther, could you explain what you meant or what kind of bushing? I'm having trouble building a decent mount for mine that covers pretty much everything you said: minimal chains to maintain/adjust, adjustable engine mount plate for belt tension, etc. I hadn't even considered extending the input shaft on the gearbox, and my driven is installed the same as yours. Jackshaft really seemed unnecessary and I'm glad to see yours is successful.
Maybe I missed it but was this a electric golf cart at first? I'm getting ready to put that motor in a Chinese electric car and looks like I'll have to do about 95 % exactly how you did...even the removing of the electric motor shaft...can you post about how you got invested in just the motor,gearbox,conversion project? I'm interested in how much I'm going to need....
Is it possible to get shaft out without a press? Looking at doing a 125 cc 4 wheeler engine so it will have 3 gears forward and a reverse. Just not sure of best way to hook it to differential. But I like how the block bearing was added on yours
Darn this is awesome but you lacked linking like where to buy that gearbox I also would like to pick your brain on start first day mounting the engine and so on. Very very nice job I would like make mines more quieter bigger muffler?? That would be my preference thanks I really like this I’m subscribing because hopefully you will show the how’s thanks again
Is that one of the $100 to $150 kit? I ask because I'm getting ready to start my UA-cam channel and I'm doing a 1200 Harley Davidson engine swap on my car. I am also doing a Yamaha R1 swap on another. I am gonna do build paint the works start to finish on both. I am also going to do other cool videos.
Warren!!! I used your conversion as a model for mine. Having some issues with the Frame to axel connection. Can I send you my picks/video of where im at? I particularly want to see what you have at the end behind the seat.
Good job Warren, would you share what you did with the shaft key way on gear box by the comment you made when talking about the pain it was. I’m doing one on the same order and I’m dealing with the expander collar the 4 different parts that have to fit just right and two keys is a bear right now and I’m open to hear any suggestions you might have in hindsight 😊😡
What sort of speed do you get out of the cart? How do you get around the gear down of the forward/ reverse gear back? I am assuming you have it installed backwards to offset the rear end orientation?
Do you ever have any issue with the gear box finding neutral while the motor is running? I have this same setup, I have to turn my engine off to get neutral, but i can switch from forward to reverse just fine.
Hi, I’m trying to do the same conversion, but I’m having a difficult time finding the correct sprocket measurement for the shaft, can you tell me what size is the one you used? Thank you
Good evening Warren! So I did conversion with the same forward reverse set up you did, including the torque converter directly on the gearbox.... when I go into forward or reverse, I keep breaking the chain. My idle is all the way down... any ideas on a fix or what I screwed up?
i got same question about gear box mounting.. i was gonna make new shaft to fit torque converter pulley . but when i took a part gear box , realized shaft had integrated gear .. which would make machining real expensive.. how did you mount it, i would like to know? thanks
What all did you have to do to get the pulley onto the gearbox shaft? I have a yamaha g1 and the stock motor is pretty tired I'm thinking of swapping mine but I don't want to lose reverse
please answer my comment how did you fit a 40 series twit converter on 30 series reverse gearbox i’m so confused I’m trying to do the same thing to my go kart
I really need to find a gearbox for cheap. I'm surprised at how loud yours is even with the muffler. I just have a Chinese shorty header that points down with a small silencer and its about the same loudness as yours.
I just came from eBay. They're $104 with free shipping. That seems much cheaper than the last time I had checked on a reverse buggy gear box. Two orphaned , starved , and cold , pitiful followed me home within the past year. Both are , or usta be electric. Well one would probably still run ok , but the charger is shot , and batteries are swelled up. It was driven to where I picked it up. Anyway I'd rather just have them be gas , that way if they don't work , at least I know what to do to them to get them running on the fly.
Warren...can you please provide some details on how you used the bushing to enable mounting the 40 series onto the FNR shaft? I am currently doing this mod and I am stuck. Thanks in advance!
Update... I ordered a split bushing with key and it works great to make up the difference in shaft and driven pulley/clutch bore BUT the length of the FNR shaft is the same length as the width of the driven pulley/clutch so there are no visible shaft threads to secure the nut and washer to. Did you have to bore and tap the FNR shaft to secure it the same way the drive pulley is? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
That’s the cleanest swap I’ve seen looks professional
This is the design i was looking for on my go cart rebuild. i like the relocation of the key start & especially the TC design, Thanks!
electric to gas is always the right direction to go with a golf cart. A new engine is cheaper than a set of batteries
Can you add a list of the parts you used and where you bought them from? I’m looking at doing the exact same conversion. Great job!! Thanks
yeah this would be great !! and would love to know what type of bushing you put bet the torque convertor and the transmission
Did he ever put out a list for the parts

Can I get a link for the gearbox? Having a terrible time finding one
Same gear box on my Manco cart. Filled it to about 3/4 Inch from fill cap. I don't see how it can blow a seal out since the box is vented.

That and maybe a little gas steering stabilizer shock.
Im doing almost the exact setup but with a yamaha g1 trans axle this helped a bunch so thank you
That is a great one, lad. This also makes a great learner's permit starter car.
Please update us on how the reverse gearbox is doing!
@Shane Jericho lier's!
I loved the video, i do have a question on how did you make the gas pedal work to pull on the throttle arm.. I been lost on that connection part, any parts i need to buy or fabricate to make it work? thanks for the video
Why does this guy not answer comments😂
Been through most of these comments & it appears he answers none LOL
LIKE that extra pillow block support
You did it just like I did but, I found a splined bushing and welded it to a 3/4 " shaft.
Great job. What was the top speed on this build?
you done agreat job! im thinking of doing my 40 series cvt direct to reverse gearbox too like yours. my question is how well has the gearbox stood up to to bigger load from the 40 series driven pully and big block??
Excellent video! Well done and easy to follow! Thanks much!! GD Tractor !!
Very similar to my setup I did a couple years ago. Thanks for sharing.
Very nicely built.
thanks for the belt info
Thanks for the info on overfilling the gearbox with oil. Anyone know about how much to use?
Great build1
Hi excellent video, how did you relocate the starter switch? is there an extension or we need to cut the wires
👍👍👍👍👍
Man you did a great job on this one!!! It's a clean looking one. To another commitmentor I told I have two carts that needs converting. So I'm glad to have found your video to get a good layout to do mine.

Driven clutch is backwards so when you rev it up the belt will run crooked.
That’s really awesome

What is supporting the front of the rack that holds the engine and allows it to move w/ rear end?
Where did you get the reverse gear box from?
im doing the same thing .. starting it today
At least your motor is not surging they are bad about that had to drill jets on both of my 13 horse power motors.
I wouldn't mind picking your brain a little bit Warren this is Tom Warren
Is that one of the $100 to $150 kit? I ask because I'm getting ready to start my UA-cam channel and I'm doing a 1200 Harley Davidson engine swap on my car.

How's the golf cart going can you make a driving video of it.
Good job Warren, would you share what you did with the shaft key way on gear box by the comment you made when talking about the pain it was. I’m doing one on the same order and I’m dealing with the expander collar the 4 different parts that have to fit just right and two keys is a bear right now and I’m open to hear any suggestions you might have in hindsight 😊😡
How many ounces of oil did you put in the gearbox the second time to make it run right?
Can you send me details on how. You set that gearbox up step by step?
How many tooth sprocket did you use for your differential? What size is the stator shaft? IS it 1"? Why didnt you just get a 1" bore sprocket?
What size sprocket did you use on rearmed and transmission?
How's that electric golf kart you put a harber freight motor on
Is to 🔥 hot under the seat man
where are you located ? how much approx cost to convert the golf cart to gas ?
Any videos of the finished product
What sort of speed do you get out of the cart? How do you get around the gear down of the forward/ reverse gear back? I am assuming you have it installed backwards to offset the rear end orientation?
Man I wish you was in Houston I said to you
Do you have an assembled and driving video of this?
Whats your top speed with this setup? Love this!
Do you ever have any issue with the gear box finding neutral while the motor is running? I have this same setup, I have to turn my engine off to get neutral, but i can switch from forward to reverse just fine.
Hey sir I grounded mine the exact same way and it won’t kill it, and suggestions?
Hi, I’m trying to do the same conversion, but I’m having a difficult time finding the correct sprocket measurement for the shaft, can you tell me what size is the one you used? Thank you
You do know you’re driven clutch is the wrong rotation
The configuration is correct with the red spring per Comet...
Did you have to modify gearbox? Was there a key way on driven that was fixed? And gearbox was keyway as well?
What transmission do you have? I have a predator 420 and my transmission breaks.
Where did you get the clutch for the golf cart
Good evening Warren! So I did conversion with the same forward reverse set up you did, including the torque converter directly on the gearbox.... when I go into forward or reverse, I keep breaking the chain. My idle is all the way down... any ideas on a fix or what I screwed up?

How hot does the seat get? Any problems with the underside of the seat burning?
How do you keep it from "clunking" when switch into forward or reverse?
What all did you have to do to get the pulley onto the gearbox shaft? I have a yamaha g1 and the stock motor is pretty tired I'm thinking of swapping mine but I don't want to lose reverse
please answer my comment how did you fit a 40 series twit converter on 30 series reverse gearbox i’m so confused I’m trying to do the same thing to my go kart
How do u charge the battery ?
Where did you get the transmission?
Their in Amazon and also gopowersports .com
where did you find the torque converter belt # 203789? I have not been able to find one. what size metal did you use to mount your motor on?
Wanna see more videos of it driving
Where did you get the small sprocket on the differential?
I really need to find a gearbox for cheap. I'm surprised at how loud yours is even with the muffler. I just have a Chinese shorty header that points down with a small silencer and its about the same loudness as yours.

What gear box you use?
Hello how did you hook up throttle cable to gas pedal? Thx
where did you buy the clutch for the preadtor engine... What size is the engine
Where did you get the gearbox
What's the top speed? Also where did you find the gear on the transaxle shaft
How did you attach your driven to the reverse gear box
Is the 300cc motor too small??
What gear oil goes in the forward reverse gearbox
Warren...can you please provide some details on how you used the bushing to enable mounting the 40 series onto the FNR shaft? I am currently doing this mod and I am stuck. Thanks in advance!

Where did you find that gear box??
I threw the stator of the motor into a fire pit and let it cook for about 2 days and all the plates slid right off!
How fast does it go?
He doesn’t seem to answer any questions 😳🤔
Wow !
Добрый день , вы не правильно установил. Ведомый шкив , ремень будет работать на перекос и быстро изнашиваться !
How did u get the motor to move with the rear end .I have a 18 hp duramax on mines and that's the only problem left that I haven't solved
It’s mounted to the axel
What size sprocket did you use on differential shaft and gearbox?
Any updates on this?
I was thinking of using a wegogas to convert a club car ds from electric to gas. Anyone have any experience with their conversion kit?
How did you mount the driven onto the forward reverse gearbox?
With a 5/8" to 3/4" adapter sleeve.
❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍🇮🇩
I got one as well bud I will send you pics if interested
6:07 6:10 6:11
How can I get your number so I can get you to build me one
Yes .. napa is severely over priced
Might whant some bushings on that motor
Where did you get the bushing for the reverse box??
Travis did you find out where to get the bushing for the wear box.if you did please let me know
