Hi everyone!  I found this forum after doing multiple web searches trying to find a set of Venom shocks for my Leo-X.  Great forum!  It's cool to see that there are people out there still enjoying their VMG/Leo-X/multiple other name trucks.  I think racing these would be a hoot, but living in Michigan it would be a bit of a drive to come out and race.

I have a question for those who are running or have ran the Venom shocks.  I ended up finding a set (on Amazon of all places) and to my disappointment 3 of the 4 shocks leak.   

I took one apart and for the life of me I cannot firgure out what is supposed to be sealing the shaft.  There is a teflon bushing and a rubber o-ring, but no retainer to hold the o-ring at the bottom to seal the shaft, so when the shock pumps up and down the o-ring rides on the shock shaft and all the oil leaks out the bottom.  I'm hoping someone has some advice (besides junk them for Mini-T shocks  ) on getting these to work and seal up.

Thanks!
