Dobinsons MRR MRA install tips

This is just to make your install faster, there are other threads about spring rates and settings.

Front: First off when putting on adjusters... don’t lose or forget the tiny ball and spring. Pic one. Also if you take the hex bolt out of the shock, there is another small steal ball there.

Ignore all the you tube videos taking half the front suspension apart. You will undue exactly 6 bolts/nuts. 14mm top 3 on strut. 19mm bottom shock. Two 19mm holding the lower control arm. Now get a ratchet strap and just pull the lower A arm down and slide the shock out. See pic two. Assembly in reverse. No need for alignment b/c you didn’t mess with adjustor/caster plates.

Rear: Its way more of a pain in the ass FYI, front should be less then an hour per side.

Undue both nut/bolt holding shock and reservoir if you have a pro. Now cut/beat the crap out of the pinch weld above the nut b/c it will make your life easier putting on the new nut on the new shock.

Here is where it gets sketchy..... place scissor or bottle Jack b/t axl and bump stop to get spring out. Might have to use hilift to raise axl/hub to put top nut on.

Mount reservoirs under frame using provided brackets. They are different but labeled “R” and “L”. Careful so driver one doesn’t contact fuel tank skid. Don’t forget to undue the sway bar link, 12mm. Top nut is weird 18mm, bottom is 17mm.
