Re: The Triton Missile
Hi,
Good project!
I just did a similar project, converting the Daihatsu FourTrack/Rocky 4x4 also with the Nissan leaf motor stack (gen2) and it works very good.
We even did some off-road driving. The power is sufficient for what we want with it.
The only thing we need to get are better batteries with more capacity. It uses the gen2 24kWh battery with 80% SOH.
I was also looking at the gen3 motor but I still find them too high in price.
I am looking forward how this project goes. If you have any questions, please let me know.
by the way, I used the input shaft from the original Leaf gearbox and made a adapter out of that.
If you want I can try to source the wire loom of the gen3 motor.
