Ezgo ST 2 not moving f or r

auburn17 · 10-01-2013, 08:39 PM

I have a 2008 Ezgo ST2 with the suburu engine. I was spraying weeds on it this past weekend and I put it in reverse and it wouldnt go anywhere. I tried forward and it was the same.

Everything seems to be working fine from what I can tell. The starter/generator is spinning, the clutch and clutch belt is spinning, and the clutch is closing like it should but the cart isnt moving.

HELP!

Do a search on this forum for stripped hubs. Have never had the problem, but evidentally you can strip the splines out of a rear brake drum wheel and then the axle will turn, but the wheels will not.

Thanks for the response. I will check this tomorrow. Would the Ausco hub 30 spline .98" pk2126 be the best one to replace it with?

Make sure the shifter cable is actually doing something and if so, jack up the rear and try again. If the wheels spin in the correct direction, it might be a hub. To tell for sure, pull the rear wheels and while holding the brake hit the gas. If it is a stripped hub the castle nut will spin but the hub won't.

And yes the 2126 hubs are good. Discs are better but.. And I would do both sides

Sounds good. The shifter cable is working, that was the first thing I checked since I had replaced it about 3 months ago. I will check the hubs when i get home.
