It's the rear leaf. Weakened by heavy use on that side. A lengthened shackle may "level" the body but that is not a fix. It will show up elsewhere.

Just my 2 cents.

Sounds reasonable.

From what I've read, the HD springs give a pretty rough ride unless you have a rear seat setup, and people on it.

My use is 95% golf course, so gust golf bags back there.

I'm going to swap the rears, for the time being. What springs should I look at?

Nice!

I like them quite a lot. They don't show the dust like some others I've had.

And, I haven't seen another set locally yet. Not like a lot of other carts around that all seem to have the same ones.

So it's usually the rear? I'm assuming it's the springs cuz it's the driver side that sags. I just went and looked and can't visually tell which spring it is...

Sounds like it. It won't take me too long to swap them around and see if it helps for now.

You could just measure the ride height at all four wheels.
That's what we do in the auto industry.

Should tell you pretty quick which end, and which corner.

If your use is a golf course just put stock springs back in it.

They are not that expensive. Seems like a lot of work to just switch them around. Again just my 2 cents.

The voice of reason.

I'll just order some.

I'm no featherweight either. Is there a spring between stock and HD?
