Yea, acording to the brochure they have a 1000lb payload, mine drags its butt like a dog with worms with a couple of hundred lbs in the back. The springs have no arch at all and there are gaps between most of the leaves. Strongly suspect several of them are broken.

Several sources have new replacements but my favorite (Olof) does not list them, only vendors overseas. I'll talk to the spring shop here in town and see what they say. I have the green book on the springs/suspension for it so I have the stock specs.

Thanks for the advice really apreciate it.
Cheers
