Hey guys,
After reading lots of good reviews of the SSL suspension upgrade, a couple of weeks ago I decided to have my mechanics here install the kit on my 2003 Morgan +8.
The weather has been bad here since so I’ve not had a chance to put too many miles on it since.
My first impression was very positive until I encountered one of the many “speed humps” we have here in Tallahassee. Seven on my street alone. These are different from speed “bumps”. These “humps” are about 15’ long and about 10” high in the mid point.
When I cross one, I get a harsh “bonk” like heavy metal against heavy metal.
Is this normal. I’m not approaching them at high speed and I’m not bottoming out. This is not what I was expecting. Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas what could be causing this?
Richard

Richard, Happy new year.
& just to say, what an excellent write up explanation. Thank you. I would only add that “in theory” when settling the springs up, it should be done with the usual weight in the seats. As I said in theory.
