Re: RXV lift ????? Help
That's interesting the TXT hadn't used that spindle in over 7 years when the RXV came out? I wonder why they would have gone back to it? Can anybody verify this? What years? This is the first I heard of this....

Re: RXV lift ????? Help
i made one inquiry to an RXV lift kit dealer about the different size spindles(axles) this is the response I got.
All of the RXV spindles are the same diameter. This kit will fit them all. So I called my Ezgo dealer, he told me the same thing, and said he had never heard of a RXV spindle recall. I'm going to pick mine up today, so I asked about lift kits he said he was doing 2 today, one from Red Hawk one from Jake's and both fit the existing hubs. |

Re: RXV lift ????? Help
ScottyB, the guy at East Coast told me that he had talked to Jakes this morning. According to him, there were a few spindles replaced due to a recall. The apparent problem was when the carts were being towed. When I bought my cart it did have one of the towing apparatuses installed. So, this seems to make sense. I just wish there was a way around me having to buy new hubs?? Where is the best place to locate new hubs?? Try to find some used or buy new?? I assume that I need hubs, bearings, and dust caps?? I need to get some coming, got the cart torn down and in the way.

Re: RXV lift ????? Help
Will be interested in the answer to this.. I see that EZ lists different hubs for the RXV than it does for the TXTs.. Wonder why...

Re: RXV lift ????? Help
SO you need old style hubs? the small ones? I probably have some used with bearings and all.
What was the internet price? |

Re: RXV lift ????? Help
scottyb, if that was ? was directed at me, I'm good just curious. EZ-Gos site has only one hub listed for 2008+ for the RXV so I am just wondering what the deal is..

Wait, did the old style hubs use a 3/4 inch shaft ? Is it possible you were sent the wrong spindles ? |
