Also, i took it for a 30 minute drive around town and the loud metallic "THUD" sound seems to be gone except in areas where the shock has to compress quite a bit (maybe when it bottoms out). Even took it over railroad tracks and didnt hear the distinctive noise.

I dont think it should be too much an issue to replace the shock, i'll just have to contact Megan Racing for a replacement. Thoughts anyone?
I had the same metallic thud coming from the back, but it went away when I upped the firmness level.
