Leaky shocks?

[Motorider]

Does anybody else have problems with the kit shocks leaking? Mine have very little runtime and are pretty low. If you have a solution please clue me in. I have figured out the scx10.2 shcoks traxxas x-rings. Thanks in advance.

Coat the o-rings with Associated/Noleen Green Slime and use Teflon tape on the shock threads.

To add to Jato..
Pull the black plastic o-ring "spacer"..
Put a 3rd o-ring,n place of it.

Funny guy jato. So with the scx10.2 you can use traxxas x-rings, so I thought maybe somebody had a similar idea for better o-rings. I'll do the 3rd o-ring and green slime. Green slime is standard goods on all my shocks. The Teflon tape is something I just started using on my scx10.2 and planned to try on these massive shocks.

Thanks for the tips guys. Now I just have to try to source some o-rings. Axial parts are very limited locally.

No amount of Ghost Buster Goo is going to fix a too small o-ring that fold upon putting on the cap or too little amount of o-rings mentioned above. Awesome looking shock but piss poor execution of what a shock is suppose to do, lack of spring choice and a royal PITA to tune.

Use these or just say F it and get Losi XXL shocks.
