TR6 I don't think the TR6 wants to go to Triumphest

I noticed today something under the TR6 that is sitting on jack stands. On of the original bump stops for the rear shocks had perished. 35 years for a rubber part is not bad. But while inspecting the problem the rear shock is now leaking. Could this have been caused buy the shock moving to far because the stop is no longer there? I know that is a long shot but I thought I would ask.
