I also have a question for you guys and apologize if it's been dealt with as I don't feel like reading the whole thread. We had a guy at our track today all happy to run his toy only to see the shock come apart after about 3 laps. Is there an issue with the shocks not being built correctly? It looks to me like the screw through the piston backed out. I felt bad for the guy and promised to look into it. Thanks guys.
Yep, this is common. Never assume that preassembled stuff is preassembled properly. Even though ThunderbirdJunkie tightened his up, the screws came apart...the only real solution is to disassemble them completely, clean em up, and loctite that screw.
