ZX5 Shock Absorbers

[burgie]

I have a ZX-5 with Kyosho Triple Seal Shocks on it.

The problem I have is that oil seeps from out of the very top of the shock caps. I am led to believe that there are a number of different shock caps for the Lazer shock absorbers. Can abybody provide me with a part number for the right caps for my shocks so that I can order some new ones to try and stop the seepage?

As you may gather, I don't have an instruction manual for the car!

Thanks in advance

might be the o-ring that is faulty.

I've seen so many people put that upper o-ring in incorrectly and wreck it. It's easily done if your not familiar with the shocks design!

I got is sussed now - i had the o ring between the shock body and the black cap instead of between the black cap and blue cap twirly thing...anyway no leaks now which must be good.

just need to find a new excuse for not winning now
