Rear end noise

brokebuggy · 11-18-2021, 09:14 PM

Had to replace an input shaft. Now the cart has a gear whine. I know it’s from the new gear mashing with the old gear. Anything I can do to make it quieter other than replacing other gears?

Have you changed the gear oil in the rear end?

2014 txt t48 and yes changes the oil when I changed the gear.

When I installed my new Plowman's Limited Slip, Mr. Plowman instructed me to buy 4-5 can's of brake cleaner, pull the axles and clean out all the oil in the entire rear end\axles. Make it "squeaky clean".

Then replace the oil with all synthetic oil.

I did that and it's been running fine ever since.

FWIW

My experience with my old RXV Dana rearend, it was whining before and after Input shaft replacement due to worn gears

New oil didn't help either, finally and 1100$ later it was fixed with a whole new transaxle.
