What would I need to change other than adding more cables to convert to six 8volt batteries from a four 12volt system on a club car DS? Thanks.

New aluminum frame work will be needed to reinforce the center section of the frame to support the four eights. The two sides will need minor shelf work as well. Use only aluminum material for new battery shelves. You will also need new hold down brackets for all the eights.

Thanks for all the information on this subject. Have a great day!

I have a 2008 Club Car Presedent...
What will it cost to add another two batteries to the cart?....Currently has four 12 volts.

Only the Club Car DS is capable of converting to eight six volts.
The conversion for the Precident can only be six eight volts. The work level
Of the Precident varies with the year of the cart, the 2004-2007 1/2 will cost more that the newer units with the electronic console located to the rear of the battery tub.
Now to deal with the costs, the DS gets 8 batteries, re-welding the battery trays, installing a new voltage reducer 48v to 12v, new wiring, new battery fill system, new hold downs, and the cost for the battery core loss (4-12s to 8-6s) approx $1,600.00
The older Precidents kit with wiring harnesses, tub kit, 8v-12v reducer and six new batteries, approx $1,350.00
The newer Precedents approx $1,100.00
