Are you sure that you didn't over torque the fittings twice? I over torqued mine when I did a spring upgrade and got to replace that same housing. I found out the hard way that it doesn't take much to over torque/crack that part.

Did you put the "o ring" in the groove properly? Or maybe you cut it or tore it while opening the package?
