Indeed, with my Suzuki SJ410 and then Land Rovers, I always used to warn first-time female passengers they might want to wear their sports bra. (Not to mention the clapped out rear shocks and springs on my J**p Cherokee.)

What's more I am about to swap off some posh Rocky Mountain parabolic springs and Old Man Emu shocks on my Series 3 109 Land Rover for the stock springs and military shocks. Want to be as original as possible, after all, which is why I am concerned to get the shocks sorted on the HUP. The staff car,after all, was intended to give the brass a softer rider with those longer springs. I'll have to check the parts book, but I think the shocks specced-out the same.
