1. My shocks leak like a motha-fu****. I have been building shocks for years so I know I built them right. I think the single seal is the culprit. Do any of you run an aftermarket/ different brand seal that seals tighter? For example. In my sc10.2, I use HPI shocks seals because they are .2mm smaller I.d. This grips the shaft a little better and prevents leaking.
2. I can't seem to get the truck to turn very tightly. I am running 7-5-3 on a large indoor clay track. I was thinking of going to 5k up front. Anyone else run at OCRC or SDRC ? What weight diff oil are you using up front?
Run the latest dunford setup.

These shocks don't leak. There is something wrong here. Even with the one seal they don't leak. I have never had an issue with one and we have been running this truck for over 3 years now and I hardly ever service the shocks and maybe replace the o-rings once a year (I know bad but I don't feel the need to).
Both Ryan and I will be at OCRC tonight if you can make it out we would be happy to help you with your truck.
