It finally quit leaking with the extra shim. It was a pain to get the retainers installed but they finally went together. Guess it took about an hour or so to get the shims filed down correctly. Without measuring my guess is that my shock bodies are machined too deep and will not allow the o rings to compress properly. Funny thing is I have another set that hasn't leaked a drop since new. I didn't even tear those down to clean up the flash on the spacers.
