Oily rear shock? Normal?

Just installed these 3 months ago. Driver’s side rear shock is definitely oilier than passenger’s. Is this normal or is the seal leaking?
Teraflex Falcon 3.3 quick adjust.

Its normal for a leaky shock.

Well that’s pretty disheartening for expensive Teraflex shocks to be leaking after 3 months and no off road yet.

I would take as many pictures of it as you can and reach out to them. Faulty new products happen and they seem like a company that will take care of it.

I know for a fact on the Falcons there is some residue under the dust cap that has nothing to do with the shock oil itself it is just used in assembly. i would clean it and see if it comes back..if it does then Teraflex has awesome customer service.
