How do I remove the shock retaining pins from my MBX8TR ECO truggy. With the shocks on (shocks mounted on truggy already) I try to pull the pin out with my fingers and even tried a butter knife and still can't remove the pin

[@noprorc9365]

@@raydonovan7988 there is a set screw on the bottom side of the arms that hold the pins in… remove those and they’ll slide right out.

@@noprorc9365 Many thanks. I will also put the shock boots over the shock ends like you because my custom Mugen came without boots

[@juanpablosaenz7719]

Wait so why wouldn’t you just unscrew the shock bottom so you can just slide off the boot without cutting it?

[@noprorc9365]

Juan, I only cut it if the boot is bad and needs replaced, if it’s still good and I just want to feel , bleed ect, then I just roll it down like in the video.

@@noprorc9365 Ah ok I thought so, I just can’t bring myself to stretch it over the shock bottom in fear of it ripping. I unscrew it every time haha

[@noprorc9365]

Yup all good , either way works well , I just always felt I was wearing out the threads in the eyelet and then also having to remeasure the stroke , I started doing it this way. Luckily I haven’t ripped a boot yet… although I shouldn’t of said that, I probably will now LOL. Thanks for watching!!!
