Thanks for the response, reason I asked was that I came across this motor, not sure how long it's been available but it looks like it was made for lawn tractor electric conversions.
Similar to the ME-0708 but has 2x the continuous amp rating (200amps) and a 1" power shaft that is similar to what you find on gas engines that have a 1" shaft.
No controller needed as rpm at 48volts are about 3600rpm.
This motor has enough power to drive the tractor and mower deck.
When mounted in the same location as the gas engine everything works as before.
ME-0708 can be done the same way, just need to use a bushing for the gas engines pulley to fit.

Anybody have any experience using this motor?
