Adding weight
I'm thinking about adding a piece of railroad iron to the front frame of my 2008 Yamaha YDR to increase stability and keep the front tires on the ground while turning with 4 passengers. Has anyone here tried this? Good idea or bad?

Re: Adding weight
Fill the front bumper with shot? Your idea sounds fine.

Did you ever try the railroad iron? I have a few pieces and was wondering about trying it too.

I don't know what you guys are experiencing,(my car is old) but I would stiffen the suspension at all 4 corners if I had to, rather than add weight to a cart!!
My second choice would be wheel spacers, but I'm not a fan of those either!! Having a skinny car is a good thing where I ride!! |
I was thinking hd rear spring would help but others said it didn't make much if any difference.

Re: Adding weight
not a noticeable difference going with the heavier rear spring

Mine used to lean a lot in corners, I shimmed the springs on the front shocks, and it stopped the lean all together!! But I don't think you guys can do this, with out running into coil bind!!

Re: Adding weight
Put some water in the front tires, to weight it down some. Like they do on the tractors

Re: Adding weight
there was talk about adding weight inside the wheel but with some of our carts that go 30 it really would/could throw off the balance of the tire. I don't think the manufacturer has put enough machining into these rims for a really great balancing wheel tire combo.

Tell your passengers to get their own cart.:lhmo:
