What about the 5 leaf springs I’ve seen online? Do they consider 3 leaf springs to be HD... how many leafs are stock? When I bought my cart, they said it had HD springs (has 3 leaf), but they are starting to W on me. Now having two 200+ guys on the back as often as I do I’m sure doesn’t help anything. I’m looking at upgrading, but not sure if I should go with the 4 or 5 leaf. Not sure, but I also think my shocks are like fully compressed. Not sure if fixing the springs will correct this or not. Thinking I should just upgrade the shocks at the same time.

This is a really stupid question... what job does a spring do and what does a shock do? I assume one is for one thing and the other is for another, but what does changing one or the other fix?

PS- 07 txt series cart with rear seat, 6” lift and 22” tires.

Thanks for all the help!
