Default Re: G14 will drive forward but not reverse

Here is a pic of the front end of the tranny. That rusty nut is where the shifter lever bolts on. The lever is about 4" long and bolts on in a straight up and down manner, and shifter cables clip on with springs kinda holding them in place, (I think, been some yrs since I've seen one)!!

Well I will probably shy away from swapping the motor in this cart if it becomes mine. First order of business will be to get everything functional and operational. Next will most likely be a lift, tires and a cargo rack. We live in kind of our own little neighborhood out in the country and use our carts more like side by sides and four wheelers. Cosmetics will be last of course.... doesn't matter how good it looks if it can't leave the garage. Thanks again for all the help. I will post some pictures if I end up dragging it home.

If it drives forward with out clunking and making noise, I would bet there is no interior damage.

Feel both sides of the clutch sheaves with your thumb and fore finger, for thicknesses. That will help you determine whether the sheaves need replacing!! Check oil before you drive it, if it's low, it might smoke when filled up to where it should be. Study where EACH wheel fits in the fender opening, that will help you determine if frame might be bent or stressed. Look at each A arm, for being bent, get out in front of car, and see that tow and camber look decent.

If when you get it home, I'd drain oil out of rear end and look for chips or filings in the oil, if clean, bet your home free!!

Good luck!!

Ditto on the oil.I did not realize my G14 was a smoker until it was filled with oil to the proper level.

Just to update. I did get the G14 cart, and as you all expected the rear end had no major damage. One of the little forks on the #3 shift lever, the one the shifter cables actually attach to, had broke. A little time and cleaning and it's all back to driving in both directions.... sort of. I've now moved on to a Fuel/Air issue. She only runs at either half throttle or with the choke pulled. Never ends. Thanks for the help, I think I'm going to be happy with this cart once its all said and done.
