Default Type G shock help

Ok so I have a set of 100 mm type G shocks and I may be missing something during installation... it seams when I install them with the provided washers and tighten them down I get no movement like there is no swiveling eyelet(but there is). So I have to leave the screw pretty loose just to get any movement. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this or am I just installing them wrong. I'll try to post a couple pics my rig is kinda torn apart at the moment. Any advice is appreciated

These are the boom racing ones yes?


Sell them, or throw them away and buy some actual shocks lime g made xd series shocks, or g made zeros, or losi 4" shocks, or even the axial aluminum ones will work circles around the boom racing crap.

Mine leaked even with Green Slim and rebuilding. The coating rubs off the shaft and destroys the sealing surface. I emailed Boomracing and after a lot of emails they replaced them FOC. If yours leak you will get them replaced under warranty.
