HELP!: Anyone installed Stance GR+3 coilover?

Hi, any help would be greatly appreciated. I just got a set of the Stance GR+3 with the external reservoir. the instruction says to connect the external reservoir to the coilover by lining up the larger fitting over the smaller fitting and slowly turn clockwise until it starts to tighten.
I tried doing that, but there is a round female stem inside the larger fitting and a male stem inside the smaller fitting that prevents the larger fitting from coming over the smaller fitting. it seems like the male and female stems inside the fittings are spring loaded, cuz when i tried forcing the larger fitting over the smaller fitting, that in turn compresses the stems inside...but when that happened oil squirted out. Is that normal? does anyone know? please help. thanks in advance.

Man... wish I could help you, but I have the GR+ only. Ask dunnojack (Henry). He really knows his stuff about Stance. You should also put a review of them on my spectrum or on the I-club product reviews.

I would just call stance. But make sure to do a review on these. I assume since you are using a 3 way system, you will be doing some fairly extensive suspension tuning. I would be very interested to know how these turn out.
