So what does restrict the downward suspension movement.......is it the shock absorbers at the front and a combination of the top link and the shockers at the rear?

Shock absorber restricts travel at the rear.

Bump stops, compression of the spring and also the shock absorber

Probably doing the wrong thing, but I just fit a couple of decent quality jubilee clips round the top coil/top mount. Works for me with a 2" lift.

No Froghopper, two good jubilee's is a classic fix. I have done a lot of trialling over the years and am not a fan of relocation cones in the extreme angles one gets to on trials. Problem is when at a severe side angle close to going over you no longer have the weight of the axle, wheel, tyre hanging off the chassis helping keep it down where as with spring attached at the top you do as soon as the wheel leaves the ground. [extra long movement shocks have their part to play in the above]
