Transaxle Removal - Club Car V-GLIDE Maintenance Service Supplement

TRANSAXLE (TYPE G)

TRANSAXLE REMOVAL

1. Place chocks at the front wheels and slightly loosen lug nuts on both rear wheels.
2. Place a floor jack under the transaxle and raise the rear of the vehicle. Position jack stands under the
frame crossmember between the spring mount and the side stringer, just forward of each rear wheel.
Lower the vehicle to let the jack stands support the vehicle (Figure 16a-6, Page 16a-5).
3. Remove the rear wheels, then thread one lug nut onto a stud on each rear hub. This will keep the brake
drums on the hubs.
4. Remove the bow-tie pins (1), brake cable clevis pins (2), and cable retaining E-clips (3). Disconnect the
brake cables (4) (Figure 16a-7, Page 16a-5).

5. Disconnect the shock absorbers from their lower mounts (Figure 16a-8, Page 16a-5).
6. Disconnect the four motor wires. Use two wrenches to prevent the post from turning.
7. With a floor jack supporting the transaxle, remove lower spring shackle nuts and bolts. Position shackles
so they are clear of springs (Figure 16a-9, Page 16a-5).
