<<<<Now I have a clunking sound.>>>

Once upon a time (about 12 years back) my then new to me 69 Ambo developed a
clunking sound in the front end. After much deliberation I pulled the forks
off and found that the left fork rattled when shaken. With GREAT difficulty
I pulled apart the fork to find that the "follower" had unscrewed from the
bottom of the damping rod and was bouncing around in the bottom of the fork!
I have been told this is very unusual. Hope your solution is easier.
