Driving my ez Go hit the brakes herd a grinding sound
So I am in the middle of camping, I was driving my golf cart when I went to stop...I herd a grinding sound. Didn't think anything of it. Went back to it put it in reverse and nothing. I hit the gas the clutch engages all the belts move but it will not move forward or backwards. Everything else is fine.
Any help would be appreciated very much. Thanks |

Well I checked it. I cant see any axles. It looks like a differential. I took the center cap off the middle of the wheel and hit the gas and that wasn't spinning or anything. ??

Jack it up and see if the wheels turn free?

The wheels spin freely. It sounds as if there's a broken or stripped gear in the diff?

Like big mule said, stripped hubs are the most common problem, the hub is splined for the axle and often strip out.

Re: Driving my ez Go hit the brakes herd a grinding sound
Alright. When I get home I'll check it out again. I'm about 7 hours away from my house.
So to check for that I have to Remove the center caps so I can see the axle nut? Have someone hit the gas so I can see of anythings spinning? If the nut starts spinning I have bad hubs? If I don't see the nut spinning then it's something internal? And I have to check both sides |
