They are called harmonic dampers (the big weights that is!) and their purpose I believe to reduce/ eliminate front/rear pitch. As it is an S/C you also have clever dislocating ARB's under there as part of the Dynamic handling clever tricks. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Apart from checking the weights swing/slide freely there shouldn't be any maintenance as far as I know. For the trick ARB's look out for hydraulic leaks as it is an electro Hydraulic system.

They are tuned mass dampers. They're there to smooth out vibrations/harmonics in the chassis.

The mini shock absorbers are part of the link between the ladder chassis and the monocoque body section. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
