Hi All,
Does anyone have the dimensions for the rear leaf springs on a TXT cart. I am trying to get a set made.
Thanks in advance

You know you can buy a new pair for $70.00 or so, right? You don't have to get them custom built!

Just some helpful info for measuring springs,I work for a spring-shop.
1.Measure along the spring from eye to eye centers (measure each leaf for multi-leaf packs)
2.Measure from eye-centers to center-pin(some are offset in one direction)
3.Width of leaf(probably 2")
4.Thickness of leaf(In the U.S. we measure them in Decimal-ex: .260")
5.Number of leaves
6.Inside-Diameter of Eyes(for bushing fit)or measure bolt and give rough dimension of eye for reference,a shop can fit an appropriate bushing.

We've built a few custom front-springs for my Ez-Go,and also built a custom lowered-spring for OffTwice for his Club-Car.The shop I work for has been in buisiness since the 50's,we build 75% of our inventory from bulk-steel thru tempering to finished product.If you need assistance or a spring built let me know.We can build to spec.or custom build,and ship them to you.Hope this helps.

Thanks all,
Cableguy you are correct and to buy original EZGO in Australia will cost a small fortune, about $160/pr. I can get them made a lot cheaper from a spring manufacturer but it is getting the correct measurements, Pachanga90 is correct with what is required. As I mentioned before the only ones I had to work off were old.
Anyway, thanks again for your replys.

I forgot about Arch-Height.You can have yours Re-Arched and even a leaf added(same as a heavy-duty).Measure the cart height at front and rear of rocker panel to ground and tell the shop how much you need the rear to come up.If you want heavier-springs for a rear-seat or dump-box,have them do a build-up(extra-leaf).Hope this helps.
