How to stop the lean???
My g16 is fine with 2 adults but if I have anyone on the rear, it leans very bad. I have pretty stiff shocks and dont want them any stiffer. Is there a sway bar for these or another solution?

Re: How to stop the lean???
Not really. Stiff shocks control the rebound after bumps, but it's the springs that carry the weight. On those Yami's the springs are coils over the shocks, so your choices are pretty limited. The weight distribution is skewed way to the rear by the way the chassis is designed. Any additional weight on the rear just makes them that much more off balance. Your 6" lift just compounds that with a higher center of gravity making it off balance on two different planes. I'm not aware of a sway bar made for those, but if you could fabricate one it might help some.

Stiff shocks usually help the most

Re: How to stop the lean???
Problem is you have done everything possible to make the cart unstable. The wheelbase and track was never designed for jacking the cart up 10" or so and then hanging 400+ pounds BEHIND [mostly] the rear wheels. A swaybar might help but your are fighting physics. Ideally, lengthening the wheelbase so your passengers are plunking their butts AHEAD of the axle and lowering the rear seat equal to the front one and lowering the whole cart will mostly eliminate the problem.

Maybe some x shaped rubber bumpers to stick in between the coils on the spring would help? Just a thought. My buddy tried this on his car hat had saggy springs and it seemed to help for a while for sure.

Adding some wheel spacers will make it overall more stable -- it's not going to make it stop leaning. If you google stabilizer bars you'll find ideas others have tried or made themselves.

There is a feller on this forum who used coil overs off a Honda Pioneer 1000 on his G22
