My guess is without a properly engineered seal it appears it will continue to be an issue.
Yes, would agree. You'd have to design a new seal and probably redesign the whole bushing in the hopes of making it stop leaking. It's a shame isn't it? I was really hoping it would work---I am still rockin the original---no issues. Looking forward to the White Lightning---
