rehabing my axle
After I did this to my cart:
I got a used DANA 73500G01 for 50 bucks from a cart that had caught fire. Soon after I installed I noticed a clicking from it that would increase with speed. I want to replace ALL bearings and seals. Does anyone have a link to a source that I can get all the parts I need? Thanks in advance |

Re: rehabing my axle
Thanks Yurtle! I noticed the the service manual is for '88-'95. The axle is out of a 2004 cart. Will the parts in the manual fit my axle?

Re: rehabing my axle
If this was caused by things like Jumps,and you plan to continue doing it,I'd build an axle-truss to strengthen the axle.I busted the case on my G2-axle last year doing stuff like that.

No jumps. There were 4 300lb people on the back seat. One of them was standing and he jumped up, when he came down... SNAP!

Re: rehabing my axle
If that is the "Normal-Load" for the cart,add the truss.Once the springs bottom out,the axle becomes the suspension,it starts flexing,and snaps the tube or the case.

Re: rehabing my axle
Pachanga, that's a decent looking job on the truss. However, Otter, since you are going to have the axle out, you might want to consider having a good aluminum welder fabricate a nice welded on truss for you. It will be infinitly stronger than any bolt-on can be and should eliminate any further concerns.
http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/gener...e-trusses.html A look through this page should give you some good ideas. The one at the bottom is a real sweet manufactured piece. |
