Default Shock O-Ring ?

I just recieved a set of new MRS5 Integy shocks for my T-maxx. The guy I got them from had them assembled completely dry and mounted on his show truck. Now Im sure he and others tried moving the suspension on the truck because thats what people do. I put oil in the shocks when I recieved them and installed them. 2 days later and only driven 1 tank most of the shocks are leaking down the shafts, enough to make my bottom A-Arms wet. Did he damage the O-Rings by running them dry on his show truck or is there something else I should look for. I know to rebuild all of the will cost me about $25. So not so bad.

Well, I have the assembly instructions. They look right. o-ring on each side of the washer and thats it. Go ahead and send me it. Can you get the o-rings for the shocks. I dont need the whole rebuild kit. I just want o-rings to rebuild them. But I gotta get the whole kit for the o-ring.
