Tc3 Sux!!! Grr!!!
 

wtf is up with the tc3??!?!?! THe shock is leaking. THe first car i got is leeked after a few runs. NOw! on my 3rd run with my car, the aluminum threaded shock started to leak!! THIS IS BULL!!!!!! WHY DO THEY KEEP LEAKING!?!?!?

have you tightened the shock cap?
over flow the shock with to mutch shock oil?

no, iit leaked from the bottom part of the shock.where teh rod is

it just needs a rebuild. the seals are probably bad.

check that your shock shafts are not bent - that will leak ya quick - it dosent take much of a wack to bend a shaft.....

looks striaght, thing is the shocks look new! i mean EVERYGHIN LOOKS new! The cvds dont show any scratches of bare aluminum. All the anodizing is sill there, no fadeing or discoloration. Same with shocks. Wut rebuild kit do i use from towerhobbies? They got lots of assocaited oens...

are the shafts looking new or do they have a rubbed or burnished look? If its an RTR it may be an assembly issue, if so you may have top disassemble them and rebuild

It's not about it "looking" straight, it's about it actually BEING straight, so do some work and tear them down to make sure. MIP makes some sweet o-rings for AE shocks, pop open yours, pull out the shaft, and roll them on the edge of a table or something to feel if they're true or not. When you rebuild, make sure you assemble everything "wet", by coating the o-rings and all other seals with a bit of either shock oil or green slime as you put it all back together.

I have never had any AE shocks that leak, well, except for the crappy stockers on my 18MT, but the FT alum. ones I replaced them with sure don't.

You could have put 'em together wrong.

I forgot about that green slime stuff - it works well with the associated shocks...

its striaght, the rod looks bran new, no marks or nothing.

did you assemble them?

YOU suck! :p The TC3 is arguably the best touring car ever made.

Seriously, just looking at something without taking it apart and blaming it on the car is childish and doesn't fix anything. Dissassemble the shock, make sure the shaft isn't bent and make sure your caps are down all the way and that you didn't over-fill the shocks.

Get the AE shock rebuild kit, AE green slime, and some MIP o-rings to use instead of the junky ones that came stock.

Take a look at Team BlueStar TC3 shocks.

I think you should give the car to me. I fix the shocks for you. ;)
