2001 ezgo rear end trouble
I have a 2001 ezgo gas txt and this weekend will driving on a real ruff dirt road my wife informed me the cart won't go as she was going up a small grade. The cart will start, the driven clutch turns, so does the shaft in rear end attached to the clutch but the rear tires don't turn. I checked to see if the right rear hub stripped out, but it checked out good. What I am looking for is any tip's on what I should check next or do. I know I will have to take out the rear end anyway but any help would be great. Send tips, open to try them.
Thanks!!! |

Re: 2001 ezgo rear end trouble
Why just the right rear? Did you check the left hub?
Did you try shifting from fwd to rev? How does it feel when you shift it? |

Re: 2001 ezgo rear end trouble
I have read that its the right side that will strip out the spline, but I will check the left side also. Shifting is fine not locked up, but I can spine driven clutch by hand very easy. open to more ideas.

If either of the splines are stripped, you will be able to turn the clutch with very little effort. |
