It is only when you move shock mounts or fit longer shocks that the springs will dislocate
Hmmm. I was not aware of this. Strange design from the factory. What's to stop the stock shock from bottoming out? I suppose the stock bumpstops prevent this from happening?

Learn something new about Rovers every day.... it's been years since I've been underneath a stock anything...
