Improved EZ-GO High Performance Motor Brake for EZGO 610065 605867 RXV Golf Carts 2008 & UP, Freedom, Shuttle 2+2, Elite, E-Brake, Car 48V Cart - Hyper Disc OEM Upgrade - fits Danaher Speed Controller

Here in Mexico, where I drive a 2014 EZGO RXV as my daily driver, the cobblestone roads really put my carts’s durability to the test. After four years, it has proven itself to be an impressively rugged little rig . When the original nine year old motor brake finally gave up and burned itself into carbon dust, I began searching for a replacement in Mexico. The availability was limited, with quoted prices ranging from $200- $700 US. I logged into Amazon US and found this replacement. The cost including shipping from Illinois to Chapala Mexico came to $175 US. I placed the order on Wednesday afternoon, with a promised delivery date on the following Monday. Instead I received the part very early on Saturday morning, a full two days early. I went right to work, and within thirty minutes had the new brake installed and working. I had already removed the old brake and cleaned the motor face and mounting bolts. The cart is running great again. Because some reviewers mentioned that they had experienced failures after a short period of time, I marked the date on the calendar, and will see how long this unit will lasts under these harsh conditions. I fully expect to be pleasantly surprised.

Installed easy and fixed an ignition delay problem

So this lasted about 2 minutes on our golf cart. The mounting holes were barely inline which made installation a challenge. After we got it on, we did a test drive and maybe went a couple of hundred feet before we lost power and started to smell the brake burning. We threw in the towel and bought a replacement from our local golf cart supply house. Twice as expensive, but the installation was super easy and its ran fine. I would stay away.

Fit my 2008 EZGO RXV. Easy to installDisconnect negative battery wire from last batteryTurn key to reverseRemove tire and rear panelUnplug brake assemblyRemove three 10mm bolts and remove brake assemblyClean motor side with SOS pad, stainless steel or wire brush till shiny cleanLine up new brake with drive bolt (wire plug should be on top) and rotate to align 10mm bolt holesStart threading 10mm bolts by handTorque 10mm bolts to 10 to 13 inch lbs.Note: bolts did no line up exactly with RXV motor, but they were only off a tiny bit. I was able to get them started by hand then I slowly turned them by wrench to make sure they were not stripping. They snugged right up and met 13 inch lbs torque. Make sure you lock washers are crushed after torque.

Works as intended. I watched several videos to guide me on the intsall. To me, all the videos made it more difficult than it had to be. I did not have to jack up my cart and take the tire off, simply remove the back access to the motor.The only down side was what others say about not being able to get all 3 bolts in. I could not either, only 2 lined up good enoug to attach.Would give 5 stars if all 3 bolts aligned.

Works great. Easy install. 10/10.

It worked good. Installed on golf cart.

These work great for a bout a year, but then again i have tried countless different brands and they all seem to last about the same. I hear that all the carts that use this brake system have the same problem.
