Some pics from Gaydon...

Both vehicles (I think - second one has definetley got them) fitted with Dislocation Cones.

Magnified pics show springs still seated, so dislocation cones not doing anything  :?

(on two posts as only 3 pics per post allowed)

Forgive me I've being stupid here, but the whole idea of fitting a cone is to GUIDE THE SPRING back into position after you have caused it pop out of it's mounting.

The fitting of the cone cannot affect your ability to get more "droop". Fitting them to my Discovery would be *pointless* as I still have my anti-roll bars - and hence, my suspension won't drop away *unless* both rear wheels are hanging over nothing...and then I am at the mercy of my brake lines!

I am of the firm belief that if my springs are in position, I am exterting downforce onto my axles .... if they were not in place....I'd be looking "cool" - but skipping my wheels along achieving nothing and going nowhere... think about it - we don't rock crawl here - in mud the thing we lose is TRACTION ..... and fitting cones to get more traction is like trying to use a fireguard made of chocolote.....
