You mean the screw that goes into the shaft holding on the piston? if so what happend was it just pulled out which caused the shaft to bend while drivin in it. take all your shocks apart and clean the screw and put RED loctite on them, screw it back into the shaft and do not put any fluid in the shock for like 20 min so the loctite can dry, idk how long it takes to 100% to dry but i only wait about 20-30 min
