There is nothing to understand. 50% of people say suspension shouldn't stay extended, 50% of people say it shouldn't stay loaded. there is no right or wrong answer from my POV. People claim dry rotting seals ect but it happens either way.

Thanks Mike. To me it seems better to have the suspension (and tires) unloaded. I find it difficult to even contemplate why keeping the suspension and tires under load is preferable.
