I am building the truck for the first time and I am having a problem with the shocks leaking from the bottom around the shaft (not even on the truck yet!!)

So the description of the shock build is not great in the manual and seems to not have a good fit, looking at the shock from the bottom I put in the black piece with the flange towards the top of the shock, the oring, then the cap....seems like something is missing!!! the shock bottoms do not screw flush with the shock body and seem to be stressed to the point of almost stripping out, and again still dont seemed sealed

Anyone have a similar problem or have any advise I would greatly appreciate it!!!
Lastly, it seems there is a extra 4 orings with the shocks, the top has the cut out bladder type oring, the collars that tread on the body have their normal orings, then there are 4 more that are not mentioned in the manual...they look like ones from the 8ight shocks that could go on the bottom but they are to big, or they could around the top of the shock, but I dont think they are supposed to....LOST!!!
You will want to either take a look at the TLracing blog on the build tips for the shock bottoms you have, and you will also want to contact horizon CS and tell them you need the updated shock caps for the scte 2.0 that they have in California.
