Motor Replacement
Ok, I have hit my first stump in my total rebuild and upgrade from 36 volts to 48 volts.
I removed all three bolts holding the motor to the drive axle housing. Is there a trick to get the motor off from here? I don't want to get overly rough with it and break something. Any help is appreciated. |

Re: Motor Replacement
I may be wrong but I think it has four bolts.

Re: Motor Replacement
It probably just has three. And being overly rough is sometimes part of the job!

Re: Motor Replacement
I could only see three bolts. 3, 9, 12 o'clock.
I just wanted to be sure there wasn't something else holding it on there that I couldn't see. How long is the splined shaft? I will get a little rougher with it this evening.... |

Re: Motor Replacement
The spline overlap is an inch or so and they have been rusting together for 11 years on your 2007 PDS.
The attached picture may help. ----------- I exploded my stock PDS motor, which locked up the rear axle. The flat bed that brought it home left it in front of the house and I had to move it off the road, so after removing the THREE bolts that hold motor on trying just about everything this side of C4, I disconnect the cables. The entire motor case could now spin and I could move the cart without having to slide the rear tires. I tried towing it to my shade tree work space with my riding lawn mower and about halfway there we heard something make a load thunk. The motor was sitting on the axle when I took the center back cover off. I don't recommend this motor removal method. ----------- Use plenty of anti-seize when installing new motor and be sure to transfer the rubber spline bumper to the new motor |

Re: Motor Replacement
On my '06, the stock motor was rusted on. I could not get it off even with a 5lb hammer. Cart shop near me had to use an electric impact hammer to get it off.
