Transmission Input Shaft Replacement
I am replacing my broken transmission input shaft on my 1999 G16 and have never been into the transmission before. Correct me if I am wrong but it looks like I should be able to do this with the axle in the cart? Any advice anyone can give me before I tear into it? Any special tools required?
Also, I purchased a G22 shaft and gear to replace it with, anybody see any problem with that as well? I'm doing this for more lower end. |

Re: Transmission Input Shaft Replacement
That does help, thank you.
I'm not sure which gear it is but it is a larger one (I'm guessing +/- 4" in diameter) that I was told to replace because the gearing is lower, but you discounted that. So I'm assuming it won't have to be replaced. It broke from the skid plate hammering a rock which bent it upward impacting the driven clutch. |

Re: Transmission Input Shaft Replacement
We have a friend with the similar problem. I'm trying to find parts. Where are you buying them and how much.
thanks, Ray |

Re: Transmission Input Shaft Replacement
Since they are gears you can't change the size of one without changing the size of the one that meshes with it. In fact you have to be careful about changing gears sometimes because they wear into each other, but with this low power its unlikely to be an issue long as all gears are in good condition. I did a CC a while back, I just pulled it from the cart it really was not hard to do. Just impact the bolts off the cradle/springs and not much else is there except the shifter cables. I left the wheel on the 'bottom' side and stood it up on that and cleaned the outside (drained it before I started). It was easy to take the axle off and cover off, then play with the gears. Put high gears in that one and new bearings, it worked great. Cleaned it and put light coat of sealant on old gasket it didn't leak at all. Stood it on the tire/wheel the whole time. Stuck it back under the cart and was done. Yours may be different but all are similar.

I found a local guy that can get the input shaft for $250.
