the truth is NO, because those forks are to be honest CRAP, you can't adjust the rebound and therefore there is nothing you can do

i dont think it damages them, but its deffo very annoying

if i were you, i wouldnt bother trying to fix them, unless you can get it done on warranty, just upgrade to some dirt jumper 3s or if you can stretch to it 2s or 1s. i have dj 3s and the rebound adjuster removes the issue of top out

I have the same top out problem with my dj 4 120mm, i am contemplating putting washers at the bottom to reduce travel and washers at the top increase the preload on the coils. Do you know where they the put the washers in your forks? Cheers, Graham
