EZ GO Brakes

[@bekind42]

lol - "..going to easy, I must be doing something wrong..." that's a true fact with my work! thank you for sharing.

[@heliarche]

You bet! Thanks for watching!

[@attorneyjasonmccart]

"BRAKE CHECK IT!!!! Well, she didn't brake check it....." as she whisks off down a hill. LOLOLOLOL. Whoever you are, sir, I owe you a case of suds. Thanks for the how-to my brother.

[@heliarche]

Vavoom and she's gone XDXDXD

[@bryanvest414]

Thanks for the vid. My '91 took the other route and locked up hard while my son was driving it. Got the new shoes and springs a couple days ago this. This vid will help a lot.

[@heliarche]

+Bryan Vest I'm glad you can get some help. Thanks for stopping by and good luck! Check those drums out before you put it together.

[@natebayless7181]

Thanks! your vid lowered my stress going into the project

[@heliarche]

Like a mean looking dog but once you get close you realize he's just a teddy bear. Glad to help!

[@pwb0511]

Thanks kids and cats add to your video, nice!

[@yukonrott]

Just went through this and I still have very little brake until hill brake clicks.... New cables, shoes, and springs...cleaned drums up... only other option is new drums maybe mine are worn to far...but the adjuster should make up for that....ugh

[@heliarche]

Maybe temporarily disable the hill brake until you can get to the bottom of it?

[@jhitt79]

You forgot to mention "dust mask" on the tools list.

[@MrGaborseres]

Profanity.... 👀🎶... I didn't hear a damn thing bro 🙂 Good job.... 👍

[@heliarche]

Thank you and thank you for watching! I sure hope it helps you.

[@rittt248]

Well other than remove and replace the cover hub you showed very little. Please don't get me wrong this is not a hate comment thank you for taking the time to make and post. But I want to ask why did you edit out the useful stuff?

[@heliarche]

rittt248 Besides how to remove the drum, there isn't much worth showing. The stuff I cut out is all standard and self explanatory if you've ever done drum brakes. I just wanted to show the layout of the brakes. Also I was using a camera that doesn't have rechargeable batteries so I had to keep the video down to the fundamentals.

[@MIKEASHE]

This really helped me, thank you!

[@heliarche]

Mike Ashe Glad to be of service!

[@thebeardedone1225]

I just bought cables and pads, and the cables were cheaper than the pads.

[@BusMaster99]

My favorite part was when you said "Noisy ass compressor: check."

[@llwellynrivets]

When the axle slips out of a golf cart wheel several inches and you can see the bearings what would cause that.Any thoughts on the matter would be greatly appreciated.

[@heliarche]

llwellynrivets I've seen it happen on trucks before and it was always an improperly assembled differential. On the rear face of the rear axle is a cover with seven or so bolts. Remove that cover and you will see the differential itself. The axle is retained in the differential with a clip. If the rear end of a golf cart is anything like the cars and trucks I've seen fail in this way, the fix should be pretty simple as long as nothing got mangled. Good luck!

[@henrymendoza9565]

Those have snap rings it probably came out... I had same thing happen on an ez go a while back

[@arielmazon1960]

How did you take out the brake shoes? I

[@heliarche]

uniquely benchmark e-business models

[@cyrussalo4096]

lol good job 7000 views no hate comments btw is it the same on an 83 ez go?

[@heliarche]

I think those are a little different as far as the adjuster but very similar. Maybe all the thumbs down makes up for the lack of idiot comments.

[@cyrussalo4096]

lol well i will give it a thumbs up

[@heliarche]

Cyrus Salo Thanks Bud! I really hope this helped you a bit at least!

[@cyrussalo4096]

hey it will when i get my 83 ez go but like u said it might be a little diffrent but it should help........thx

[@Shawn-rq4py]

Not so much as a tutorial but it’s a before and after . Showed how to loosen the lugs, take off the drum, put it back on etc but You didn’t show the most important part. How to actually install the shoes.

[@heliarche]

Have you ever installed shoes on drum brakes? Do that.

[@Shawn-rq4py]

heliarche if I had I wouldn’t have come here looking for a video on how to do it.

[@heliarche]

Ah, get a manual.

[@Shawn-rq4py]

heliarche no need I found an actual how to video that shows the important part you left out.

[@heliarche]

Glad you found it. This is an incredibly complicated mechanism after all.

[@johnhenrick2298]

The compressor needed to be moved away from the camera mic

[@heliarche]

I'm not a sound or camera guy. I just set the camera going and mitä tapahtuu, tapahtuu.

[@michaelthomas2653]

Well those are installed and adjusted wrong

[@heliarche]

Clearly...

[@jamessiemen9023]

Don't want him working on my cart.

[@heliarche]

Let's see if James Siemens channel has a better video on doing this.... "This channel doesn't have any content" Huh... You'll get there...

[@Richard31406]

nice video of your knee....

[@heliarche]

My knees are awesome

[@Richard31406]

@@heliarche theyre so silky haha

[@4x4Riderss]

Nice job BRO I am going to do mine next :)

[@heliarche]

Thanks! Hope this is some help.

[@ronrobinson3872]

get your knee out of the way..lol

[@Manix81]

Thanks but you need THREE hands.

[@heliarche]

I could see that being nice but I'd probably just get in my own way even worse.

[@jhitt79]

Next, you should install shoes on your own feet.

[@toddolthof]

Dumb why skip spring install!!

[@heliarche]

Springs?
