I think mine leaks at the back of the female fitting. Because the fitting turns it must seat metal to metal or should I say won't seat. To make thing worse the weight of the hose will put a twist on the fitting. The only way I can get it to stop leaking is to secure the hose to the trailer fitting with pliers but am concerned that one day I will twist it off.

Because I use a "quick disconnect" connector, I insert the part that screws into the hose connection on the rig and tighten it very tight. It doesn't wiggle after being tight. Then, the hose, with the other part of the "quick disconnect" connector is tightened on the hose. When the two are connected (hose to rig), there are no drips. I believe you can make yours work that way. Get a brass quick disconnect, not a plastic one.
