hi, i have got some dirt jumper 3's (2003) and they make a clunking noise whenever I land. Does anyone know how to stop this or why its happening. cheers Andy

have you taken them apart recently (had the springs out). just that my boxxers did that for a while when i serviced them last year because i put some spacers in the wrong order so one of the springs wasnt seated correctly

i had the same issue with a set of drop off sl's on my big hit.... i jst loosened up the stem bolts and the headset top cap bolt...and then put one hand on the stem and then put all my weight on it and tightened up the bolts... headset bolt first and then stem bolts...this sorted the problem
Dont put your bike away for winter... its the natural order
