Everything else about the ride and quality of the toe arms, LCA's, and coils are amazing. Just gotta make sure everything is set up right!
If you have a go pro, I'd try mounting it up behind the suspension with a light source and see if you can get any insight that way. Easier said than done though.

Yeah, that would be perfect but alas, no Go Pro. Instead I bought Spec D headlights, lol.

Make sure its not the foam insert that holds your spare tire tools. If the clips are no longer holding it down... it shifts and makes clunking noises.

Use to get a lot of those when I relocated to south Texas for awhile. They were not as religious on the sweeps as they are up here + the rocky soil did not help.
