No visual pitting last time i looked at it. After cleaning it up last time it looked fine but the bump stop was soaked in the green shock fluid.It could be wiper leakage, but I'm more interested in the pitting in the chrome down at the bottom. Is all of the chrome gone down there? Are you driving in a manner where you would have the shock go full stroke? If so, and the chrome is pitting, it will rip that wiper right to crap, and yes, it would begin leaking all the time.
Ok. Understood. it still looks like there is stuff stuck in the wiper on the piston. I would suggest spraying some water up there and trying to clean that off. If its clean, it may stop leaking. If its clean, and the leak continues, I'd say the wiper is shot and you're gonna need to rebuild it or warranty a replacement.No visual pitting last time i looked at it.
