new HD rear leaf spring sag?

[MadMark1026]

after ordering a second set of HD springs for my 2014 precedent I realized I may be in for the same issues of having the springs sag and shackles flatten out - so I made shackels twice the length and added an aluminum block above my lower A arm to help level it out.

Club car tempo , 6”! Lift, rear seat. 3 weeks old. Only ride in neighborhood with wife and never put weight on rear. According to paperwork these are the dual action HD springs. Are they supposed to flatten like that with the lift blocks and rear seat?
Also, I’m going to remove some of the u bolt nuts and cut the bolts down to tidy it all up some!

Start over with a known set of correct springs.

My springs are doing the same thing.. I ordered them from a sponsor "GolfCartTireSupply.com" in Dec of 2020.

I had also ordered an AllSports long travel lift kit, and due to the extreme backlog, it didn't arrive until the end of Sept 2021, at which time, I installed the front lift kit and the new HD springs from GolfcartTireSupply.

My springs are sagging as well.. they are completely flat and actually have a slightly backward curve to them.

I just fired off an email to GolfCartTireSupply.com a few minutes ago, I guess we'll see if they stand behind their products.
