2016 Ezgo RXV Rear End Noise When Braking
Hey all, I can seem to find a solid answer to my issue and maybe someone can chime in that had a similar experience.
I just lifted my my cart with the Jake's 6" spindle kit and added 23x10x14 wheels and tires. I love it and rides awesome but when I apply the brakes to stop a loud clunking noise come from the rear. Sounds like the rear gears or motor brake. I really don't know what it could be. I'll really appreciate any insight and thanks in advance. |

Re: 2016 Ezgo RXV Rear End Noise When Braking
The lift kit stuff is pretty hard on that style axle mount. With the cart turned off, have a friend "push & pull back & forth" while you check for problems underneath, and check those pins on the front of the axle, they will rattle in the mounts.

Re: 2016 Ezgo RXV Rear End Noise When Braking
Check and looks like that's the culprit. Is there a remedy for this, do I need to crank the u bolts tight? I can't seem to find a torque spec. Would adding some rubber between the axle and mounting be a good idea?

Re: 2016 Ezgo RXV Rear End Noise When Braking
Why is the spring still underneath the axle? Or am I just looking at the picture wrong?

Re: 2016 Ezgo RXV Rear End Noise When Braking
Loosen & remove the u-bolt & spring/axle perch mount. (With axle supported). Clean everything very well. Then put anti-seize on every spot where any parts were touching each other. Reassemble. This will solve it.
You must support the frame with jackstands while doing this. |
