Hey guys I have a 2013 e4 gem. My 5hp motor died and instead of upgrading to a new more powerful brushed motor I’m trying to figure out if anyone currently offers an 8kw AC conversion kit (motor and controller) any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I have all the parts for 5kw and 6.5kw plug and play kits, But it’s not DIY, yet. I need to find someone with better than average skills to muddle through it with me.

I looks like you aren’t near one of our experienced Gem guys. ☹ I’m a motivated seller with a few parts left from when I had a partner.

Look through posts from last couple months. One of our 8kw kits was posted. Tbh, unless you have a loaded E6, the 5kw Polaris ac motor kicks ass. @MikeKC
