OK, but surely that would need to be a height adjustable bump-stop... It's only going to be correct for one height isn't it?

I guess if the spring is linear, then the spring rate isn't going to be different at the time the bump-stop comes into play, it's just going to be earlier. The bump-stop then becomes part of tuning?

Longer bump-stop means flatter cornering because the spring rate increases once the bump-stop is used. If it's too long, you might get a rough ride, if it's too short, you might get too much roll in corners?

All this begs the question... what does this mean for the MSS setup? Does it include a shorter bump stop, or is the kit intended for stock ride height?
