Because of the nature of the Morgan front suspension you may need to roll the car backwards and forwards a couple of times to get the stub axle to settle into its static position.
Trying to bounce up and down on the front end will not be particularly effective because doing so would try to move the tyres sideways. It is for this reason that, when the car is not rolling, the front end of a Morgan seems particularly stiff if you try to bounce it. If you had the wheels resting on plates that could move sideways it would be a different thing.

When doing this sort of check it is also recommended to unfasten the bottom end of the damper so that that does not have an effect.

A simple way to check whether or not the lower spring is too short is simply to measure both springs. If one is just touching and the other is the same length obviously the lower spring is not the problem and it has to be stiction of the stub axle on the kingpin or a faulty upper spring.

If there is not stiction one of the effects of this would be more body roll when cornering to the left.
