2017 Yamaha AC Drive2 out of ballance after lift
Hello we've owned a few golf carts over the years and never ran into this problem after lifting them.
I installed the Jakes 3" spindle lift, with Rohx 22"DOT street tires on 14" rims. I thought I had a bad tire so the dealer had sent me a new tire with rim. I changed each tire out and noticed no difference. So I took the 23 inch all terrain tires off my 2015 Club president, and swap them over to the Yamaha and still had the same issue. It feels like the cart I can't tell if it's from the front or rear end is riding like on an egg. It feels like one of the tires are severely out of round. Only thing I can think of now is somehow when I lifted it with the Jakes lift, or I did Bend the bar that goes across the frame in the rear end when I jacked it up. There's a little square bar that connects two the unibody and when I went to check it from that point it bent the bar up about an inch. Any ideas if that would cause it or something else? |

Jack it up and spin each wheel and look for out of round or wobble.

Re: 2017 Yamaha AC Drive2 out of ballance after lift
OK you think it's still a tire issue?
It's weird how I put the other set on it and it was still noticeable That's a good idea they sent me an extra tire and rim and I changed each one out but didn't know if I even changed the bad one I couldn't tell the difference I'll Jack it up and spend the tire and see if I see something that looks really bad out of balance or wobble |

Remove the rear wheels & check for the throwaway drum retainer clips. They look like a odd silver washer stuck over one wheel stud. Does not allow the wheel to sit flush on the drum. Yamaha released TSB to remove & discard.

Going to jack it up tonight, spin each wheel, and remove the rear silver C-Clips on the one stud on each side.
Thanks for the help, I'll update after the progress over the weekend |
