Leaning cart
I have changed all front and rear springs and shockers on my cart but cart is still
Leaning on the left hand side when turning to the left on uneven ground the cart bottoms as if there is no suspension at the front, could this be caused by a bent front axle, and how can you check it for true measurement? Rockinr382 |

Re: Leaning cart
If you go back over my PM's from previously, it is all explained in detail how to check your spring alignment etc. Did you follow my instructions regarding checking the frame for twists and bends?
If you have not worked through the detailed checks, then we are just guessing. If you did, you did not bother getting back to me, so you need to tell me what you found. If you bought cheap front springs, suspect those first and buy OEM genuine parts instead. |

Re: Leaning cart
An axle bent so slightly to need a "true measurement" wouldn't cause the problem. If the front suspension is bottoming on small bumps with new springs there is something more going on, as cartmaster has suggested.
Can you post some pics of the undercarriage? Where the front springs mount to the frame? |

Re: Leaning cart
I have carried out all the checks and dimension measurements as per your message, all true as correct, all springs genuine from Jacobsons in the States, with correct numbers stamped on, the axle is bent on the passenger side, to solve the bottoming I have fitted heavy duty front springs now and that has stopped the problem temporarily. Will strip axle off in winter and either repair it or fit a new one, thanks for all the replies, great information as always,
