ez-go rear end (help)
I have a 98 ez-go that I installed a 13hp honda motor with a comet 780 clutch. Ive had it in there for a while and its ran pretty good. It is key start so it dosent start /stop with the gas pedal. When you put it under a big load or shortly after it dosent want to shift from fwd to reverse easy. The last camping trip we were on, I climbed some 3-4 ft hills and when the front tires were up in the air I switched the lever into reverse and it was still trying to go fwd. It was making a noise like it was trying to find the gear. I shut it off and looked under it and it looked as if the lever on the axle was fully engaged. I then turned it back on and after a few more seconds the finally went into reverse. It happened again yesterday when i was pulling an old truck around the shop with it on wheel dollies after i moved it it didn't go into reverse until I shut the motor off. Is my rear end going out? Should I try and adjust the cables? Thanks in advanced!

I have experienced a similar issue in the past but it was due to the axle being loaded up, under tension. Once I relieved the pressure by rocking it a little, it shifted out of gear like its supposed to.

Mine is weird it seems every time its under a load like climbing a big hill it will be really hard to shift into reverse even if Im at a stand still on flat ground. Like the belt is hot and is grabbing to much.
