Starting to lose my mind with this. I'm working on my new downhill bike, a Scott Gambler with a Float X shock. I've swapped out the wheels and brakes, which meant running new lines through the frame. Currently I have a clunk if I drop the back of the bike from a few inches or cycle the suspension through the first part of the travel by pushing on the saddle. It's very much like what I've experienced with a loose shock bolt or work out bushing in the past but it's a new bike...
I have pulled the chain to confirm that it's not drivetrain related. Pulled the shock and greased every possible surface, torqued everything to spec. Played around with the shock to see if there was anything obviously loose. I pulled the internal cables out and repeated to see if it was actually cable rattle. Checked the dropouts, rear hub bearing preload...basically everything I can think of.
I don't have another shock to try, but I do have another rear wheel so I could try that. Feel like I'm at the point where it's either out of spec shock hardware or an issue with the shock itself.
Any other troubleshooting steps that I should take? It's a trunnion mount shock for reference.
