Default shock problems

i have a new losi mini crawler and got the losi adjustable shocks and after alot of trial and error i got all the air out and no rebound but they seem to leak and after 2or 3 days they need to be refilled i have tightened up both ends to the piont that im afraid of stripping them. is there a better shock out ther for the truck or am i doing something wrong? thanks for all your help

you might stop by your LHS and have them show you how to use (green slime) it has a brand name just not sure what it is...helped with the leaking it helps seal the O-rings on the shock shaft..

You could also try using a small bit of teflon tape on the bottom piece of the shock and on the cap to help prevent leaking and make a better seal.
