Yamaha G8 rear end noise?
I’ll definitely pull it apart. I won’t give up until I’ve tried it. Where can I get a gasket?

Re: Yamaha G8 rear end noise?
Well this is bad- I replaced it with a good tested used rear end- it took all afternoon- and it’s still making the noise. Now what to do with this thing?

Re: Yamaha G8 rear end noise?
The noise is getting worse. It’s as bad as it was before the (difficult) rear end swap.

Re: Yamaha G8 rear end noise?
It’s still there. Pretty annoying. I’m guessing D&D sold me a motor with a noisy bearing. It’s not worth the hassle at this point 4 months later.

Re: Yamaha G8 rear end noise?
Figured I'd update this- the noise was always there although it did get slightly quieter. I sold the cart. I have another Yamaha with a D&D motor that makes almost the same noise though, although quieter. I guess it's inherent to the motor/rear end combination...

Re: Yamaha G8 rear end noise?
Interesting!
I wouldn't think many people would want to have that going on with their golf car. I would think between the axle swap and then a completely different car, you would have been able to get rid of the issue..... Does not make sense to me. There has to be a fix, I would think... |
