Your post is a bit confusing. But I'll try. The cart can either a 36 volt or a 48 volt system, There will be either 6- 6 volt or 6-8 volt batteries wired in series. All batteries are of the deep cycle type and are for golf cart use.. If the 12 volt batteries you have are deep cycle the may work 3 12 volt or 4 12 volt in series. However they will not deliver the power required for very long in a golf cart. If the batteries are car starting batteries they should not be used in a golf cart as they will not withstand the continuous power required for a golf cart. Good cart batteries will be $100.00 to $150.00 or more each.

What voltage does the batteries show now at full charge??

I'm no expert, but if it's a 48 volt, which it would be if each battery has 4 caps, they you could run with four 12 volt batteries. However you won't have quite as much run time as compared to six 8 volt battery.
