Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Where is spring 14358790 installed on a forklift?
A: This spring is likely installed in the tilt mechanism, load return assembly, or control valve linkage on Toyota, Hyster, Linde, or other OEM forklifts. The exact mounting point depends on forklift series and configuration. Verify the application with your equipment documentation before ordering.
Q: What is the difference between springs 1435879 and 14358790?
A: These are separate part numbers that may differ in spring rate, free length, installed height, or application. Without detailed specifications, contact us with your forklift model and the system where the spring is used. We will identify which part is correct for your equipment.
Q: Can I use a generic replacement spring instead of 14358790?
A: No. Using an incorrect spring rate or length will affect load control, tilt speed, or system pressure. Springs must match the original OEM specifications. A spring that is too weak fails to control load descent; a spring that is too stiff can overload hydraulic cylinders and cause damage.
Q: How often should spring 14358790 be inspected?
A: Inspect springs annually as part of routine forklift maintenance. Look for visible cracks, discoloration, or loss of tension. Heavy-use equipment should be inspected every 6 months. Early detection prevents sudden failure and downtime.
Q: What is the cost and lead time for spring 14358790?
A: Contact us with your forklift model and serial number for current pricing and availability. Lead times depend on whether the spring is in stock or requires special order. We can confirm delivery timeframes and help you plan maintenance accordingly.
