The problem is the shocks are sticking because of the crappy orings AE is
trying to run in the shock cartridge, plus some of the cartridges the holes
are to small or not round in shape.

The fix I found was to make sure the holes are round and the right size by
drilling or exacto knife. Then replace the bottom oring with an Ofna 1/8th
shock oring and replace the top oring with an SC10 2wd oring packing both
with RED Mobile 1 synthetic grease.

This makes shocks smooth and free in movement and they don't leak.

Hope this helps you & others"
