I think you are all crazy. TRF makes the best shocks in the world.
PS. I never have shocks that leak because I actually work on my cars every race day. Also you need to clean your car after every run. 5 min of cleaning will make anything last a lot longer and will cost you less.

Rear - Mid arm RB5 velvet bodies, 54mm shaft, 1 mm downtravel limter.
Front - Std RB5 fronts, .5 mm uptravel limter.
Go 2B piston front and 2C piston rear with 30w rear and 25w front to start.
That is the setup that I ran on the lightweight lipo setup and it worked very well.
The std body rear RB5 bodies are too long from what I found.

This is something ev1 who drives ae should see
There is a great article on building shocks at http://users.telenet.be/elvo/12/8/1.html. Shock bodies aren't normally the problem; the problem is with the spacers.
