The problem with using a 48 volt solenoid on 36 volts is the coil voltage. 48 volt solenoids were designed to run on 48 volts. It "might" work but you would have problems with it not engaging simply because their is not enough voltage to operate the coil.

36 volt solenoid on 48 volts are the opposite, but you run the risk of burning out the coil.

Not to plug czonka relays but the coil on those are designed to run off a wide variety of voltages using the same coil. The one I use will run off of 32-96 volts. Somthing like that would work but its not a direct bolt-on replacement.
