TXT rear axle question

Melsdad · 07-13-2016, 04:09 AM

Does anyone have an expanded drawing of the complete axle for a 1996 EZGO TXT? possibly with part numbers for all the parts from the brake drums to the gears?

Check out this. It's for a '94 but I THINK it's the same. Sixth post down I believe.

Thanks a lot Barnsworth! That is exactly what I was looking for. If I am looking at the drawing correctly. Is #71 a bearing?

I'm not sure. It's kind of confusing isn't it? It almost looks like 70 is pointing to it but then again it's pointing to two points on the axle and the other point sure doesn't look like a bearing to me. If I had to guess I'd say yes but I'm really not sure either. Yes that 71 is the bearing that is.

O.k so here is my issue. I have a noise coming from the rear drivers side wheel. I only notice it when I make hard right turns putting more pressure on the drivers side of the cart. And it is even more noticeable when I have people on the back seat.

I have pulled the drum off and the brakes and axle spline look good. I figured there had to be a bearing in there someplace.

Does this sound like it could be my problem?

Yes #71 is the axle bearing. At the top of the diagram, it says. Item 70 includes item 71 they are showing where the bearing goes on the axle. In that diagram. Here's another one

Thanks RIB33024! This is very clear and the part numbers are a huge help!

Thank You!

I ordered bearings today. Are there any tricks to removing them? I'm assuming I will need a puller.

I have not got to this project yet. But I have the bearings. I read online someplace that if you remove the brake assembly and put the drum on backwards and put the castle nut back on. You can use the drum like a slide hammer to pop the axle out of the housing. Is it really this easy or is there more to it? What about putting the axle back into the housing?
