95 ezgo txt rear axle issue
My 95 gas ezgo has been running fine since I purchased it several months ago. It developed a squeak in the rear driver side when turning right which I determined to be from a bad axle bearing.
I got a new bearing and replaced it without any issues. When I took it off the jacks and tried to test out my work, the motor will not turn the wheels. I checked the engine and can see the drive belt is being grabbed and turning, but getting no motion to the wheels. I ran out of time to troubleshoot tonight, so anyone have ideas of where to start looking tomorrow? Thanks. Last edited by Intak; 02-19-2014 at 09:53 AM.. Reason: bad spelling |

Re: 95 ezgo txt rear axle issue
May be your rear clutch is stuck open. The belt should be a snug fit when the motor is shut off. There should be about 1 inch deflection in the belt with the motor off.

Re: 95 ezgo txt rear axle issue
Thanks, I checked the belt and it is loose, but does not look any looser than before I began.
With the rear end on jacks, when the drive clutch engages, the drive belt turns and spins the driven clutch. The wheels turn but seem to be pretty slow for the speed of the motor. With the rear end on jacks I can spin the right wheel and the left turns opposite, but spinning the left does not spin the right. Is the driven (rear) clutch the one you said to adjust? Thanks. |

Re: 95 ezgo txt rear axle issue
Turns out the two rear axels/hubs were different. One side had about 20 small ridges and the other had a single large removable key. When I pulled off the right side, the key fell out and I didn't notice. After pulling the hub back off and replacing the key it drives fine again.
Thanks for the advice. |
