Default Lift saggy rear end?

Howdy folks!

I've got a 2010 txt48 with the rear facing seat. The rear end has been a little lower than the front ever since I purchased the cart a few years ago.

I replaced the leaf springs with super heavy duty 4 leaf spring ones and it only lifted it up slightly. Any idea how I can boost it another 1-2" in the rear? I hate the way it looks with the lower rear than front.

Appreciate any suggestions

What he said.

If you want to raise it 1 inch then the shackles will need to be 2 inches longer since they are at only one end of the spring. Pretty easy to do too.

Also make sure you don't have some odd short travel shocks on the back. My txt doesn't have any shocks mounted to the back and rides just fine.

Just installed the 6" extended shackles. I searched online and didn't see them for sale anywhere. But I have a neighbor that has everything there ever was so I asked him (long shot) and... What do you know he happens to have the exact 6" extended shackles I need. He gave them to be for free. Great dude! They did exactly what I wanted lifted the rear end just enough.. Perfect! Thanks for your help
