Rebuilding an EZGO TXT Golf Cart Episode 2 | Rear Axle Rebuild

[@WillEvans_]

I can think of a few “noisy rear ends” that could do with sorting out! Great video 👍🏼

[@louisclarkeii]

Nicely done!

[@valmig01]

Nice job. Can’t wait to see the next video.

[@richardwest4722]

Grasias x compartir. Un buen video nos sirve de mucha ayuda anosotros los principiantes .saludos des d vallarta

[@onthemudd1]

Shoot me an email bud, thanks for watching! [e-mail]

[@Eduardomd54]

I enjoy your work. Whats the specs of torque, to those screws (4) to these two retrainers . And witch oil and correct amount to refill the differential. I think you corrected that noise. Thank you

Great video! learned a lot. I have a rotational noise when drive down the road, its in the rear for sure. I have a 2015 EZ Go. Where can I order the part for a rebuild? Question! was there any shimming or torque spec when reinstalling? great video tho! Thank you for sharing

[@ForYourConsideration]

I pulled my hub and bearings a few hours ago and learned that I should have tapped the hub with a plastic/ rubber hammer instead of a small steel hammer just like the shop manual said. Even though they were light taps, the cast hub broke. Duh.

[@Stayoutofthewater522]

What was the cost of the axles differential and bearings etc in this video

[@c4farms802]

At 17:00 where can I find that gear? I ordered one but the shaft size was too big to fit the bearings

Dave, thanks so much for making this video. I had a 'Custom Cartz' shop do some maintenance recently and it was not done properly (for starters the new axle bearings are totally shot after only 3 months...if they actually replaced them). I tried your link to the rebuild kit in your description but it no longer works. I have a 2005 EZGO TXT PDS cart with the factory Dana rear end. Couple of questions: 1.) Can you provide the link to the bearing seating tool set you used to install the bearings? 2.) Can you provide the link to the bearing puller set you used to remove the bearings from the differential? 3.) Any suggestions on removing the motor which is stuck to the input shaft (motor housing spins freely after the bolts were removed but it will not come off the input shaft? Thanks again for the great content. Cheers, Jeff (Garage Maker Guy)

[@DaveDivesIn]

Hey Jeff, shoot me an email: [e-mail]

[@allstarscryout]

Thanks for the video! Any tips for removing that top gear and bearings? Those two bearings on the input shaft are definitely bad for me.

[@allstarscryout]

And any idea where that seal on the input shaft bearing can be sourced?

Great video but music to loud!

[@DaveDivesIn]

Thanks for the feedback Jim. Please check out my battery swap video, let me know if that is better. Ian working on my editing techniques and this kind of feedback is invaluable. Thanks for watching!

[@ArkellThomasIII]

Hey brother, I just rebuilt my golf cart rear end just as you did.. everything went smoothly except when I installed it and hit the gas I heard a loud constant noise.. my question is, is there a certain way the gears half to be lined up? Do they half to be the big chunk in the back and the middle gear are close to each other but not touching.. any advice you can give me on a trick to stop the noise.. I put all new bearings but took the gears out of a used rear end that had structure damage.. the gears looked good, I inspected then well.. please help.. thanks..

How did you fill the differential oil? Mine only seems to have a drain plug. Guess I could flip it over.

[@DaveDivesIn]

I filled the cover before installing

[@sammyandnana4551]

Where did you buy the parts from? I have a 2008 bad boy buggy with the same rear end and need a new intermediate gear and ring gear but I can’t find them online and can’t read the part numbers on them

[@DaveDivesIn]

Shoot me an email bud, I will do my best to help! [e-mail] Thanks for watching!

[@sammyandnana4551]

Will do thank you 👍

[@kristilangston9011]

Can I send you a video of what mines doing? I'm not sure if it's the differential or if a rebuild will do

[@spectrum7spectrum727]

Hi Dave, I clicked on the ebay link you bearing kit you used but it did not pull it up. Do you have the part number fort that kit by chance?

[@PixelRubble]

When putting the cover back onto the rear end and getting it all squared away, are you supposed to add any oil or lubricant to the differential?

[@ashleydog45]

30 weight non detergent motor oil.

[@steveandrews8301]

Did you end up replacing the differential? You said the spider gear(s) had possibly too much play in it. Is that an acceptable amount of play in them? Thanks. Great video! If the diff. gears themselves are worn out, where do get them? - I can't seem to find them for sale on ebay.

[@DaveDivesIn]

Hey Steve, I did not. The diff was smooth and quiet after replacement of the bearings.

[@steveandrews8301]

@@DaveDivesIn Thanks so much, Dave. I guess then that there is supposed to be a certain amount of acceptable “gear lash” (?) / play in those gears. Thanks again.

[@steveandrews8301]

@@DaveDivesIn Another question, Dave, which faulty (old) bearings do you suspect were primarily causing the loud running gear / noise? Which of the old bearings seemed to be most worn out / and the least worn out, as well, and where were they located? Thanks again.

[@DaveDivesIn]

I think the driver side outboard bearing was the worst, figured I’d change them all!

[@steveandrews8301]

@@DaveDivesIn Is that one of those two biggest bearings in the sides of the differential case that support the large, vertical (pinion?) gear? Thanks much for all your help and your previous, prompt replies! - I'm in the current process of trying to decide how to go about fixing my Mother's exact same model, (a 2009 EZGO TXT.), which has a probable bad bearing caused rear end noise. I'm not sure where exactly the noise is coming from. It seems to be heard best with the motor unloaded / foot off the accelerator, most of the times, while driving it, but not always - it doesn't seem consistent, to me, when I test drove it a couple times, and I can't nail where it's coming from. Thanks. .

Taken the whole cart to bits for no reason!

[@DaveDivesIn]

How so bud?

[@richardchapman1236]

I wish you had better lighting on the axles. Your camera was facing directly outside toward the light making the contrast very bad in the important stuff. You went to a lot of trouble to make the video. Cinematography needs work. Thanks, though.

[@commoncentsamerican]

hated the music

[@DaveDivesIn]

Nobody is forcing you to watch. I was learning to edit.

[@commoncentsamerican]

@DaveDivesIn oh i didnt watch, was going to, but then the music just wouldnt stop so found a better video without the crap music and watched it.
