Very strange. What oils had you been using? Check to see how far the piston rises above the shock body at full compression as if it is too far the piston can get caught and that would put alot of pressure on the piston. Also check to see if the amount of droop is more tha the full extension that the sock allows otherwise this again puts alot of pressure directly on the piston. That is all I can think of that will cause this.
