squeky noise on back left side

hr44hitter · 07-25-2012, 08:52 AM

I am not real sure what the problem is. I hear this squeky noise coming out of the back left side. It stops when i let off the gas and am not accelerating. I have a 2008 YDRE with a 6" lift. it was doing it before i put the lift on. any help is appreciated. Also wasnt sure if there was another thread out there with the same questions. didnt really feel like going through the 56 pages to see. thanks

Does the noise increase or decrease in the turns?

Something that happens freq even when I sell a brand new Yamaha Drive off my lot you can try...Reach under the cart between the wheel and where the rear end tubes/collars connect to the rear end and try to spin these silver tubes. They look solid but are independent from rear end and only tighten up with the axle nut. If you can spin them by hand then they often cause what your talking about if not a bearing...If you need a pic of what I'm ref too let me know.

the noise stays about that same no matter the acceleration and stays the same throughout the turns.
I will try to spin the silver tubes. i think i know what part you are speaking of. i will let you know in a little bit if that fixes the problem.

Those silver tubes did spin by hand..I will tighten them and see if that solves the problem. Thanks for the help camaroluv

I have fixed 5 of these so far on Yamaha golf carts at our development. That's 100% of 5 Yamaha's, the axle nuts were loose on both sides. I tighten the nut up to 80-90 ft lbs and the related noises stop.
