Not meaning to hijack, but a wheel bearing was bad on my E-gator. Manual says to remove batteries and whole transaxle. A days job. I jacked it up, took off the wheel, took off a retaining ring and the shaft and bearing came out. Maybe fifteen minutes.
I知 trying to get the front ring and pinion gears out. Theyæ±*e toast and I can稚 figure out how to remove them.
