How To Find Your Rear End Axle Gear Ratio On A Golf Cart With Painters Tape

If you bought a golf cart and the seller told you they installed a high speed gear ratio but how would you tell. In this video I go over how to determine which gear ratio you have in your golf cart with painters tape!

I think on a club car you can take the speed sensor off and do the same thing with tape. That way you're not pulling the motor 😊

I'm sure there's some good content on showing how to do a step by step 6.1 gear upgrade. I'd definitely be interested. 😉

It's a PIA, you have to split the rear-end case. For 6:1 you probably want to make sure you live in flat area because you're gonna loose acceleration and hill climbing. 8:1 is what most people I've heard of do.

Some more knowledgeable information under my belt THANKS AGAIN RYAN

Hey thanks Ryan, I was the fan that sent you that email. Thank you so much for the info, will be trying it this wk/end!

Thanks man! I appreciate the email.

Good info Ryan

Why do you have to multiply by 2? Is it because the actual final ratio is the intermediate shaft to the differential? Or is the hub half the size of a stock wheel?

I held the left axle still and rotated the right axle 6 times to 1 time of the motor shaft. If you spin both axles at the same time it will spin 12 times to the motor shafts 1 time.
