Feels like bottoming out

Hey Everyone.
New guy on the forum with a question. I posted this in the Rebel specific forum, but thought I would try on the suspension forum also. I've noticed whenever I go over an entrance to a drive for a business that has an exceptionally high entrance curb, one or both of my front shocks feel like they are bottoming out. If I go slowly, no problem, but if I turn into the drive at say... 10 mph... the front feels like it just "slams" hard! Anyone else noticed this? I'm pretty good with a wrench and know my way around mechanics so I looked everywhere in the front suspension for any signs of strut leakage or any places where metal was slamming against metal and could find nothing. I put a wrench on the sway bar and end links and made sure they were tight. There is no "clunking" sound involved, it just feels like it slams too hard for an off road biased truck.
Thank you for any insight you might have.
