Thank you for your words OZ. I recall that I think..though it was 1000s of questions ago... a new Morgan at the time right? Those were busy years with all those suspect leaf springs. As noted, I was hit as well. I guess people since merely suffer the degraded ride. The oldest curse of Morgan owners is "THEY ALL DO THAT'. (sad sigh) Imagine how hard a ride must be to compensate for faulty leaf springs and the deterioration of rear ride height. Not much clearance at the back to start with!

It is fascinating to see the solutions people are coming up with. I am infinitely pleased at ANY attempt to sort these cars, wrong or right. I am a fan of Roger sight unseen.

BTW, did those new springs stay up? Be an illuminating lesson to speak to the ride difference between faulty new leaf springs and ones that do the job. And what happened to your bottoming out?

It was indeed many posts ago Lorn. My 2011 4/4 had a 35 mm sag to the driver's side from new. It took two years, the involvement of our Federal motoring authorities, and three attempts by Morgan to fix the spring issue. The replacement 4 seater springs finally did the trick and the last time I looked, had not sagged again.
Your input and counsel at the time was invaluable....
