i love the shocks. they are a very sweet set up and make the suspension on the kit look weak but when you get it twisted, they work perfect!!!1 no problems, plus they dont leak....

2 of mine are leaking. one at the top, and one at the bottom. It seems that from being a bit twisted during use has slightly stripped the threads on the shock body. Now the aluminum caps don't go on correctly/straight. doh! :-(

I had 1 shock body aswell that was stripped out. Called Venom about a month ago about it, seamed happy to replace it but i havent seen it yet.
I also have 3 leaking shocks and I am what you would call a couch wheeler. I have very little time out side with my creeper.

The only thing aluminium about the Creepers shock cap is the anodized nut. The cap it's self is still plastic.

Mine replacements are backordered, so I'm going to find something else.

Any suggestions? I'm not sure what size to get. 100 mm?
