EZ-GO RXV making noises in rear of cart

Trevor.wood19 · 03-18-2020, 10:03 AM

Cart made the same noises before and I thought it was the bearings going out, got new ones put in and it still makes the same noise. Makes it a low speeds and high speeds here and there. Also makes it when weight is applied to the back or you rock it back and forth. I have a short video of the noise on my youtube channel called Trevor Wood (profile pic is truck headlight). Any ideas on what it is would be great!

That only took first second of video to figure out. You need wheel bearing on that side. Since your doing it, do other side too. Super common, pretty easy, and incredibly easy for me to diagnose. I fix that all the time.

Be sure to clean & lube axle shaft splines, and torque them good ("ezgo school" said "more than factory spec is ok, 200 ft/lb is ok"). Center axle nut, not lug nuts.
