Dingo Seat Springs

[The Auck]

Can anyone tell me how many springs are used in the Dingo Commanders Seat? The springs are inside the backrest tubes and enable the seat to be raised easily. I think it is two per side but my parts manual pages stop just before the Commander's Seat parts!!!!!!

I am also looking for the raising mechanism for this seat.

 

Thanks

Nigel,

 

Without checking, I think it is 4 each side, they have stepped spacers between each spring.

Will now go and search for the book!

Nigel,

 

It gets worse..........there a 5 springs each side with 4 spacers each side,

At 14" long that would make the seat tubes 70" !! They aren't that long. Are there different types perhaps?

They want some getting together, slide the top half off and stand it on top of the lower tubes, that will give you an idea of how long the assembled springs are.

I will when I find 8 more! Or have the remains of mine retensioned or is it resprung!!

 

Thanks for that Richard. Dingo going well now. Sorted its problem.
