Default G29 (gas) rear springs...

Finally got sick of the sloppy suspension on my stock 2012 gas G29 (JW8-102781) and decided to order heavy duty rear-springs...this thing really is a hazard with more than 2 adults on it with stock springs...

I came across golfcartking.com and, on their site, they sell Jakes model/sku 7251 (springs pre-mounted on shocks) and it says they can be installed on the Yamaha G29. I saw some conflicting info while looking for install videos on Youtube and, after some searching, I realized that this sku can only be mounted on the electric G29, though that isn't specified on their site. So, no big deal, I'll just return them when they are delivered. Annoying, but it is what it is...

Here's my problem...I can't find the Jakes HD rear springs (sku 6280) anywhere in stock...at all lol. Is this just a known thing that they aren't available and I'm just too new to realize?

If anyone has a source for these, would you mind pointing me in the right direction? Are there other springs out there I should consider? Any/all suggestions/help would be greatly appreciated.

You have a pair of the Jakes springs in stock? I'm going through now and checking all of the site sponsors and so far I only see the Yamaha springs and the Jakes are showing up "not available" at most retailers...

Yes any time I install a lift or backseat kit on a Drive I upgrade the springs with the Jacks 6280 for the exact reason you are wanting them on yours..

I just Googled (heavy duty rear springs for a Yamaha g-29) and found several in stock offerings for the replacement springs only.
