The adapters themselves shouldn't provide any major source of leakage but the input and output hoses do.  There is very little room to run the hoses without contacting the shock towers.  Anywhere there is contact is potentionally a source of wear and eventual leakage.  Always buy the braided steel hoses because of this problem.
