Dobinsons MRA vs MRR Shocks: Which One Should You Choose?
Dobinsons offers two premium monotube shock absorber lines. The MRA (Monotube Remote Adjustable) features an external reservoir with a 20-position compression adjustment dial, allowing you to fine-tune your ride for different loads and terrain. These are popular with tourers carrying heavy accessories and camper trailers. The MRR (Monotube Remote Reservoir) shares a similar remote reservoir design for increased oil capacity and heat dissipation, but without the adjustable valve. Both lines offer a significant upgrade over standard shocks and are a popular choice for serious 4x4 builds across Australia.

Their MRA shocks, in particular, give you remote-adjustable dampening at a price point well below many competitors.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Dobinsons suspension made in Australia?
Dobinsons is an Australian-owned company based in Rockhampton, Queensland. They design their suspension systems in Australia and manufacture components both locally and overseas to their own specifications. All products are tested for Australian conditions and backed by Australian warranty support.
What does MRA stand for in Dobinsons shocks?
MRA stands for Monotube Remote Adjustable. These shocks feature an external reservoir connected by a braided line, with a 20-position compression adjustment dial that lets you tune the ride firmness to suit your load and driving conditions.
Will a Dobinsons lift kit void my vehicle warranty?
Aftermarket suspension modifications can vary in how they affect manufacturer warranties. Dobinsons lift kits are engineered within standard lift heights (typically 2 to 3 inches) and are widely used across Australia. We recommend checking with your vehicle dealer regarding their specific warranty policy before making changes.
How do I choose the right Dobinsons springs for my vehicle?
Spring selection depends on your vehicle model, the weight of accessories and gear you carry, and whether you want a lifted or standard ride height. Dobinsons offers multiple load ratings for most vehicles. If you need help choosing, our team at APC4WD can recommend the right springs based on your setup.
Does Dobinsons make CV boot kits?
Yes, Dobinsons manufactures high clearance inner and outer CV boot kits for the Toyota Hilux N70 and N80. These are designed for lifted vehicles where standard CV boots are stretched beyond their normal range, and they are among the most popular Dobinsons products at APC4WD.
