Big bore leak issue

[Ducman82]

i replaced the oring on my big bore (just one shock) and after i run truck, even just down the street, no jumps it will leak when it sits.... gurrr. anyone else have that problem.?

 

[maximusraylius]

are they over filled?

 

[Ducman82]

nope, and its just the one.... gurrr.

 

[maximusraylius]

it leaking from the bottom where the shaft is? or from the cap? might need the seals seated better?

 

[Ducman82]

its from the bottom. and i just replaced the seals awhile ago. ill have to do it again i guess.... :-(

 

[maximusraylius]

yeah they might not be seating up fully... also when you redo them .. put a lil oil on the shafts before putting them through the o rings so it lubes them up n makes them smoother ...

well i took the ### apart and it turned out the insides of the "seal unit" at the bottom of the shock fell apart and ate the top most oring.... gurrr but its all fixed, and works now.
