Default finally did it

yep, finally "bucked up" and bought some new heavy duty rear springs for my 48 volt TXT. Got em' from radical carts on ebay, $89 shipped and probably the best $89 I spent on the cart. Nice ride, super smooth....go figure, considering one of the the stock 2 leaf springs was busted in half and the other was shaped like a "s". The new springs raised my cart about 2 or 3 inches higher in the rear and now I can tell the front is sagging and it kinda leans on the drivers side. Maybe because my big, 260 lb. azz has stressed em'!! Next week I'll order some heavy duty fronts.

Good idea! My 96 txt's rear is really soft...The springs are in decent shape but bushings are shot (bout $20 to replace). Did your springs come with bushings? Post a pic if you can id like to see what it looks like...I just put a set of 12's on the cart, dont wanna do a lift kit yet but it might look cool if it lifts a bit
