This is an interesting thread to follow, I will be upgrading the suspension on my LC at some point and ARB is a top contender. What I am most curious about is how this problem wasn't caught in the Australian market. Yes, in general it's warmer there but that country can seriously abuse suspension. It's the only place I have overheated a suspension system to the point of totally fading - this was in a landcruiser troop carrier with nearly stock suspension. The lack of controlled suspension was so bad I needed to stop and let it cool off....just after that I also realized that the eggs in the ARB fridge were broken and a bottle had unscrewed its top from the vibration. The corrugations on Cape York are brutal and can go on for miles and miles. It's a place where I can understand why they would want a system like the bp-51.
I have high end suspension on several motorcycles and mountain bikes, they are ridden year around and the suspension is worked...oil flow when it's cold can sometimes be noticed but usually isn't an issues when warmed up. Clunking that's not bottoming is not something that I am familiar with.
What is their clunk like? Is it a jarring clunk that feels like the suspension is bottoming or locking? Or is it just a noise with suspension that behaves as it should? Does it go away when the suspension warms up?
