This is NOT a quality issue or incorrect manufacturing as some think or say.
All shocks are delivered with the shock cap mounted on the shock body.
This obviously means that the top cap fits perfectly on the shock body.
You however need to make sure that when you tighten the shock cap on the shock body that you fit them correctly, then there wont be any issues.
A tip to make this easier or smoother is if you put some grease (Xenon shock grease/Associated green slim) on the shock house on the threading then it will also be easier and smoother to mount.

Hi Andreas,
I have one body shock 10 005 with external threading diameter a little bit smaller to other one, so if I screw the cap gentle no worry but as soon as I want to screw the cap in the normal way, the cap goes in a wrong way because there is too much place between body threading and cap treading.
if you want I can send you this body and cap and you' ll see there is a problem.
