Default Ezgo 2001 txt

Hi first time poster here, so forgive me if I'm veering off protocol. I recently put a rear seat on the back of my cart and had a couple of men standing on top of the rear foot rest as well as two men in the front. Since then my driver side rear wheel has a squeak of some sort. I thought maybe rear suspension or axle but I lifted the cart up and I didn't see anything broken. It really sounds like it is in the wheel well and I feel like I hear it more when going up hill over going down hill. I haven't taken the wheel of yet to check everything out, but was curious if anyone has had this issue or any ideas. Thank you of much for your help.

Had a semi similar issue with the squeaking in my drivers side front tire and it ended up being a loose brake hub. Jacked it up and took the torque wrench to it and no more squeaking for me. Don't know much about carts but that is what solved my issue. Good luck

check your bushings at the springs

did you do heavy duty springs when you put rear seat on ?
if not the 2 men on rear could of bent the stock springs

Not yet but probably need. Never expected anyone but kids on the back. I actually took the hub off last night and that seemed to make it go away a little bit. I didn't have a chance to really drive it around but I didn't notice it as much. I'll keep testing but this old cart probably needs some upgrades.
