so ill just immediately start with cliff notes

-riding at mountain creek over the weekend
- noticed my fork was bogging down.. felt fine on the light fast dh trails, but would bottom out very easily on 'steep roller to flat' type downhill... no ramp up what so ever, very linear
-also notice a knocking in my compression side lowers when applying the front brake and rocking the bike back and forth.
-when taking apart the bike i notice my fork sat about 0.5" into its travel with no weight on bike
now here is the video to make things more simple haha

(I hope this link works)

at first you can see the lateral play in the rod, and then i show you the suction

then i spotted a small crack in a ring
