In this episode of Dissrepair, we show you how to adapt a Hyper9 Electric Motor to a Volkswagen Transaxle to start your EV conversion of your vintage volkswagen.
This task requires only ordinary hand tools and should take less than 1 hour, with the tools, fasteners and components handy (and a couple of friends too)
Check out our website for more details.

Why does this swap use flywheel and clutch?

@dissrepair Год назад

The motor utilizes the conventional transmission and can be driven in a single gear or shifted manually. Check out the driving video in this link ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FgP1_rGJBxc.html

@videostars9194 Год назад

And reverse too

@andro7137 Год назад

A conventional clutch with an aluminium alloy flywheel sounds like a recipe for a rather short life.

@A_Really_Nice_Guy Год назад

@@andro7137 No need to use the clutch though, so possibly will not slip.

If you heat the hub in an oven it will slide right on. Interference fit is a pain no matter how you do it.

@willieshaw2522 Год назад

Electric motor armature shafts are usually not rated for much of a thrust load. I wonder if the roller bearings in the electric motor have a high enough thrust rating for the thrust applied when the clutch is applied and released.

@steveclunn8165 Год назад

They seem to do very well before the hyper 9 the net gain Warp 9 was popular they all went together the same way and bearing failure is rare even after many years, see my RU-vid

@knutbergan Год назад

Saw electric conversion VW bug back in 1978 in San Francisco. I guess this has been around quite awhile.

I would love to have an EV Karmann Ghia. I would also like to have an EV Nash Metro.

@Zaascar 3 месяца назад

@demotors070161 is there a thrust bearing built into the hyper9? I imagine there will be some axial force when depressing the clutch, and I don't see any thrust bearings externally in the set up. Wondering if this has been an issue for you and this build at all?

@abrahammonteropacheco7557 Год назад

you can also make Mustang 2005 v6 electric like that

is that a standard vw clutch if so 200mm or 180mm ..cheers

@zhiquancao4751 Год назад

Where did you get the motor? Off from the recycled EV or bought new from the manufactures?

@858socalworks 4 месяца назад

do you have to measure the distance between the bell housing adapter and make it equal to the original motor bell housing?

What can I say about the Hyper9 engine, you can customize any car. Even they can build electric go-karts.😁

Ok, I've busted two pieces of all thread trying to get my adapter on. It seems to start straight, but gets really tights and I'm not anywhere close to the spacer. Are there any other tips or tricks to get that adapter on? Not sure where to go next. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

@PatrickFitzgerald-ge2hw 9 месяцев назад

I have this same problem. It is about 80% on, but I’m crushing all thread trying to get that last 1/2 inch. Did you solve it?

@CountryRoadCycles 8 месяцев назад

@@PatrickFitzgerald-ge2hw I didn't solve it yet, although I did find that the groove for the key was not clean and had to be filed for the key to fit correctly. Going to try again this weekend with heat. If that doesn't work I'm going to see about having it pressed in by a machine shop. Hope you have better luck.

@jacklocicero6027 2 года назад

Curious about the the cost moving to electric if you don't do it yourself..... a guesstimate would be appreciated.

It’s a hard question to answer without some specifics about the vehicle and goals for the vehicle. Contact Flashdrivemotors.com and they can answer that question! Thanks for watching

@brianworden7022 7 месяцев назад

Too much to be a cool way to get a old bug with no engine back on the road because buying a new engine is cheaper. You could probably buy a new engine and trans for the price of the EV motor.

@chucksgarage7165 2 года назад

I really don't think that output shaft adapter needs to fit that tightly on the motor shaft. I've worked with all sorts of industrial couplings (which is essentially what that is) and they just slide on.

@jonn7877 Год назад

He could have heater the adapter then it would have slipped on to the motor shaft. That's the way I did it with my Hyper9 motor and it worked well.

@willieshaw2522 Год назад

"Chucks Garage" Usually electric motor couplings only have to transmit rotational torque through them. They typically use a Lovejoy coupler to take care of minor alignment issues. That adapter will also see the rotational load and any imbalance of the clutch and flywheel, and the thrust load from the throw-out bearing when applying the clutch. IMO it needs to be an interference fit.

1:30 You damaged the bearings hammering the shaft. NEVER EVER use a hammer on bearings. The inner and outer rings get markings (damage) of the balls by the axial force applied.

@nunyabidniz2868 Год назад

You're missing the point: ease of conversion. It's literally just a motor swap. Nothing I'd do to ruin the value of a classic car, but you do you. Heck, you can even get a couple of hundred bucks for the old engine to offset the multiple $1000s of dollars for the EV motor kit + batteries! 🙄
