I think I need to make something clear , There is no issue with the Lansdowne Dampers regarding the clunking
It is the forks with endfloat on the steel lower fork bushing ,between the circlip and the shoulder on the stanchion.
Its not to noticeable on forks with standard internals. The Lansdowne dampers bring to light some of the problems
inherit with the standard setup, one being the bottom bushing having to much endfloat allowing the bushing to
bang up and down when the forks change direction at full compression, You may think that .010" or .015" endfloat
wouldnt cause an issue but it does. Loctite the bushing before fitting the circlip so the bushing cant move.
