some help needed

hey to all

i recently rebuild the shocks for my girlfriends b3. the rear ones are fine but i have a problem with the front ones. no matter how much i tighten them they leak. it isnt really every time they compress, but after a while a little bit of shock oil will sips through. i redid them but same thing.
i really dont know what to do. can anyone please offer some advice on this?
thanx for reading
cheers

You can buy a shock rebuild kit from associated that has all of the seals, o rings, and teflon guides, replace all of these and they will feel brand new. The shock bodies will last forever, replace the shock shafts if they are overly worn. Rebuild kit is only a few dollars
