Welcome to the forum...

More than likely you have a bad bearing on the input shaft, in the rear end or in the motor. First thing to do is check the rear end lube. To check the level with the cart on level ground pull the plug near the bottom of the rear end pan and oil should run out or you should be able to stick your finger in the fill hole and feel the oil. If the oil does'nt run out you can try adding 30 weight until in does then put the plug back in. Chances are there is a bad bearing though...

You can get the bearings at a bearing supply but you' need the old bearing to match them up. Or you can buy them from buggiesunlimited.

Are you sure the manufactures code you posted is correct. That code isn't for a 2000...

Yes, i got the # on the passengers side under the dash. Either i was misinformed or misunderstood when i bought the cart.

Purchased the cart about two years ago for my dad (83). He goes to the mail box and checks out the pond, it has been a great
help in his ability to get around.
