G29 2016 YDRE front shocks--Bad?

DDNorCal · 05-25-2022, 01:06 PM

Hi all!

Still working on the ride quality. New 10" wheels and 205/65-10 tires have improved it quite a bit. Still looking for a bit more comfort.

RE: Front shocks

Leaning and pushing hard on the body, on the drivers-side I can make it move a few inches but it squeaks.

On the passenger side, I cannot get it to move, almost nothing.

Which one appears to be proper?

The front ride quality still seems a bit jarring. And yes, still experimenting with the amount of air pressure.

This cart was a lease return with a complete dealer refurb. He told me he did not replace the shocks. At 6+ years and probably a lot of miles, should I be looking at replacing?

Thx DD

I would check the suspension for binding or bent parts. Often, leased carts get abused and parts can get bent. Shocks usually don't fail on these carts. Both sides should have similar flex when you lean on them.
