Two things right off the bat, make sure your f-r handle actually moves the cable to the transaxle. I'd put the rear on stands for this next test, as these can jump into gear! Once raised, speed up the engine and see if the clutch moves in on the belt ( pulls it tight ) If the cart has sat for a long time, the clutch can stick! You can take the cover off and spray a little lube on it if it's stuck. Try these two items first and post back on your results.

Ok so the clutch moves on the belt and the forward reverse selector seems to be working, the rear hubs dont seem to be stripped out either. Any other ideas?
