    I was wondering the same thing actually. I still have a lot of BFH work to do to stop the tires from rubbing, and had hoped thats what I was hearing, but honestly had never heard that clunky sound till that morn. Ive tried to reproduce the sound at will, and cant, it only presents itself on occasion.

    Well im afraid it sounds like mine did. Also, being on the sand, maybe some got into a split in the boot?

    You are probably correct. Looks like its time to revert to the ramen diet and rolling my own cigs to save up part $$$.

    I'll crawl underneath this weekend and assess the damage. Thanks for your observations CR.
