Hello! I have the problem with my shocks, the are leaking! I usу TRF HL cylinders, low friction rod guide set (Plastic spacers), TRF blue orings, and gold shock shafts. I was build them how is described on the TRF Racing web site. What it's can be?
Thanks |

I cant comment on the TRF buggy shocks but i can tell you that the TRF tourer shocks are prone to leaking if you use the blue TRF seals. They do seem smoother with them fitted but they weep oil im afraid. Its a case of rebuilding them more often or sticking to the std seals !

In this case BLUE IS MOST DEFINITELY NOT BETTER. I have 3 sets of TRF shocks, all with the gold shafts and HL cylinders and the first time I put the blue seals in they leaked like mental. Just use the standard seals and they won't leak and they will still feel silky smooth

![]() And what spacers in the bottom part are you using? Standart or Low friction? (with standart orings). |

It's the blue orings! They are a nightmare, low friction because the diameters too big!! I still use them, with VG grease, they still leak but I can normally get through two meetings before they are too bad!
