    Good to see you posting consistently again, Zach. Your builds are honest and your videos don't involve editing to make you look perfect. It's a really desirable format.

  • @jonathanbenson3737
    @jonathanbenson3737 Рік тому +28

    First, throttle issue is likely 1 of a few things. Check the micro switch in the pedal box (if you’re not getting a solenoid click when it messes up), check the white 4 pin molex connector going to foot switch/ITS since it’s not a watertight plug. If those all check out good, it is possible that the aftermarket controller you have is going bad. Looks like an Alltrax or possibly an Alltrax knockoff. They knockoffs that we’re made a few years ago are known for having this type of issue.
    Things to improve on: While the cart looks pretty good, drivetrain wise needs some improvements. First, I noticed that you are running 5 batteries (I assume (5) 8v’s if it’s a 36v nominal system). While this works, you are sacrificing run time/capacity as well as likely not getting a full charge. (Charger shuts off around 40-41v on a 36v pack. Since your nominal voltage is now 40v, your peak voltage will be 45-46v). Basically your charger will shut off when it sees “full”, but your pack will be maybe 50-60%. Also, if you intend on using that cart to haul more than a few people, I can’t stress at least going to a 48v setup enough. 36v carts have a lot less performance than 48, and 36v limo carts at full capacity really struggle to say the least. If you want to get some serious speed and torque (35mph+) and/or do burnouts I would highly recommend a 5kw Navitas AC kit on a 48v lead acid or even lithium (Eco Battery) pack. While these kits are pricey, they are well worth the money and definitely increase the value of the cart overall.
    If you need any help with anything or deals on parts, feel free to contact me. Would be glad to help you take this to the next level!!
    Thanks, Jonathan

    • @TheStuartstardust
      @TheStuartstardust Рік тому

      The thin floor panels where gone, most likely some joints also. The box section he cut away had some clean steel left, so not completely gone i would say.🤓 I guess they don't really protect the steel from the factory. 🤔

    • @myitbos1335

    Dude so glad you're back posting stuff. Honestly, your channel is one of my favorite rebuild channels. You help people understand that you can do a lot yourself if you just take the time and learn how to do thing. The golf cart looks amazing. The color, the wheels, those seats!!! What an outstanding job you've done on this project. Any idea what that golf cart is worth now that you rebuilt it? Keep the content coming homie, I watch every one of your videos. Thanks!

    Zach, the golf cart turned out great! For that frame to have been so rusted makes me think it must have been in saltwater at some point. Very nice restoration and your painting ability is second to none! Great video!

    • @That-bearded-dude

    @ultimaterebuilds Pull the cover to the throttle box. It will have a switch, ITS sensor and rod in it. The rod slides through the ITS "Inductive throttle sensor. But I've replaced a bunch of switches on ezgo carts. If the solenoid doesnt click when you press on the accelerator pedal check the continuity of the switch. Cheap fix. I dig your content!

You are truly an artist, I love seeing your builds, to be so talented and so young is amazing!!! I love the color and it would be super if the top was gold, maybe a big double gold stripe up there!

  • @mazdarx7887
    @mazdarx7887 Рік тому +3

    Biggest problem with those carts is the motor and electrics. It's usually the same motor for the basic two seater as for the extended version. And those bigger wheels require more power. A motor/electrical upgrade may be in order.

    Looks great! I have one I need to work on this summer. It is a two seater with a tilt dump bed on the back. My big expense will be replacing the batteries! The mother in law wants it up and running to do little errands around town. (Small town of 1300 people) That way she doesn't have to drive her mini van to go get the mail.

    Nice work! The welds were looking really nice too, by the way.
    Thanks for sharing.
    As an aside, I wanted to do these types of conversions as a retirement hobby and for a bit of income as well. There are so many guys doing it now in my area of the world that there’s just nothing in it! Haha. Oh well. I wouldn’t mind doing the work if I knew I could consistently break even. There’s a lot of instant gratification to doing these. Yours especially. That frame was gonna snap any day!! 😂😂.
