dOGbOne & shOck mOuntinG assembly 

 Slide 

the front of the shock into the frame mount.  Attach 

the shock to the frame with a M6 x 31mm Ti female bolt 
and a M6x1x12 Ti male bolt.  Use the guide pin tool to 
align the shock in the frame while inserting the female 
bolt.  Ensure the female bolt enters the frame through 
the drive side and that each Ti bolt has the appropriate 
washer.  Apply locktite to the male bolt and tighten using 
two 5mm allen keys.  

dOGbOne & shOck mOuntinG assembly

 

Insert two 22mm 

reducers into the shock and tap into place with a dead blow hammer.

dOGbOne & shOck mOuntinG assembly

 

Attach 

the dogbone in the frame using a12.7x56mm pivot 

pin and a 15mm male pivot bolt. Apply grease to the 
outside of the pivot pin and the threads of the male pivot 
bolt.  Use a dead blow hammer to insert the 56mm pivot 
pin through the drive side of the frame and the top of the 
dogbone. Use a15mm male bolt on the non-drive side 
and tighten the dogbone into place with a 4mm and 6mm 
allen key.  

rear trianGle assembly

 

Slide the chainstay over the main pivot, 

using the grooves in the swingarm to properly align it over the main 

pivot bore.

mOuntinG rear trianGle  

Install the main pivot pin 

from the drive side using a dead blow hammer. Be sure 

to lightly coat the pivot pin with grease. Thread the main 
pivot pin cap into the non drive side of the pivot pin. Use a 
generous amount of grease on the male threads. Tighten the 
pin and cap with two 5mm allen keys. Torque 115-125 in/lbs

tip: 

While installing the female pivot pin, align the chainstay 

with the main pivot bore in the front triangle with your free 
index finger.

thread prep 

Yeti recommends prepping all bolt threads 

at once on your work bench with Loctite or grease.  This will 
ensure that all bolts are used in assembly.   The medium 
strength (blue) Loctite formula along with proper torque is 
ideal to keep the bolts snug.

dOGbOne & shOck setup

 

Press bearings (PN 300020031) flush into 

the bottom of the dogbone with the shoulders facing out. Next press 

bearings (PN 300020031) into top of the dogbone making sure shoulders 
are facing in.

mOuntinG rear trianGle

 

Attach the seat stays 

to the secured chainstay. Slide the seatstay over 

the chainstay pivot tabs making sure the Yeti logo on the 
cross brace is facing up. Secure the seatstay with a female 
16.5mm bolt and an M6x1x12 Ti male bolt on the drive and 
non-drive sides. Ensure each bolt has the proper washer 
installed.  Prep the male bolts with locktite and tighten each 
assembly with two 5mm allen keys.  

Torque 90-95 in/lbs

mOuntinG rear trianGle

  

Align the top of  the seatstay with the 

bottom of the dogbone and insert the seatstay dogbone pin through 

the bearings on the seatstays and dogbone on the drive side.  Ensure the 
collar on the pin sits flush with the bearing on the seatstay.  Repeat this 
process for the non drive side of the frame.
