Found the problem-

Snap ring on the PFP adjuster broke out of its groove somehow. At the same time the spring for the compression adjuster detent ball popped out into the cavity and got all mangled.

Have no idea how or why this happened. Forks were just serviced with fresh oil, but nothing was dissassembled in this part of the PFP.....Any ideas?

Attached pic shows pieces that sheared off side of snap ring groove (orange arrow)

Originally I thought the pfp had backed out on its threads, but it was out past the orings. We had to use a vice grips to wind it back in trailside, but it actually tightened the PFP right up as stiff as it would go. This explains why my front suspension was 'off' during my ride on Sunday
