Big Boy Isolating relay

Question on the Big Boy battery Isolator Relay;

On my 2002 Revolution I have a Big Boy isolator relay for the battery system. Lately I have noticed that it has been making a very loud "thunk", like hitting your tires with a hammer. Sometimes its very loud other times its normal.

My first question is this relay repairable or serviceable? Is it normal for it to be this loud?

Thanks

Many people have disassembled and overhauled theirs. You can google them. The first thread here will be informative: https://www.irv2.com/forums/f115/rep...oy-396832.html
