We are redoing our '93 g8-batteries are all testing good
But it something is not working properly. If we pick the
Back end up and get the tires off the ground we seem to
Have ok power then once back on the ground not much happens...
Any suggestions?

Welcome to the forum.

How did you test the batteries? What is the individual voltage of each battery with no load and when you try to move the cart? Are you sure the batteries are wired correctly?

The batteries all tested good off of the cart
We get a little motion when we actually pick up the rear end off of the ground
We are thinking something with the motor that maybe the bigger wheels are affecting the ratio??

I'm not sure but we did test the voltage of the batteries and they all tested at 6 volts
Maybe the motor can't handle the bigger tires? We put 23x10.5x12 with the lift...he even made sure the cart leaned to
The front to counter for the weight of the batteries...

I'd take a closer look at all cable connections and the batteries and test them under load before going any further. If the batteries are only at 6 volts with no load they're dead. You need to check them with a digital volt meter.
