2010/11 Reba solo air 26". Lockout on, fine. Lockout off, 20mm travel.

Before I take them apart, suggestions? Doesn't matter what the psi is, I get the same clunk at 20mm regardless of set rebound rate or +/- gate adjustment.

I believe the right stanchion to be the problem.

Worked fine on Monday.

Wrong forum edit. Sorry again.

Weird that it's better with lockout on than off, but my bet would be that the damping oil has leaked into the lowers.

Might be ok with a strip and rebuild or might need new seals.
Easy to diagnose as there'll be a lot more than the 15/20ml of oil in the lower leg.
