Should I be concerned

[XanderKane]

New to doo spent 4 years on pros and wanted to try something different. I bought a 2015 freeride and noticed the front shocks don't sit in the center of the a-arm. Is that common doo thing?


Not sure why it's upside down.
I didn't hit anything nor is there a bend/break/crack in the a-arms/skies/e and s modules.

Looks fine, just as long as its not rubbing on the A-arm its fine

the piggyback should be in the centre of the A arm those shocks are different from each other and have to be put on the correct side. Mine were installed incorrectly and I hit a rock and broke the piggyback right off. Dealer replaced both shocks at their cost.

Don't worry, it is right side up when the sled is up side down.

Im confused by your reply. Are you saying they are installed incorrectly.

On the Freeride there is a difference between the left and right front shock.

It is hard to tell from the pic,looks fine to me though. But if the Res makes contact with the A arm it wont be good.

If its not making contact with the upper A arm you're good.

Heres a Pic of my old one. Aarm was bent though,,,

They do not sit in the centre of the a arm. If they do you likely hit something.
