Genuine FOX Rear Shock Mounting Hardware for a Precise, Rattle-Free Fit.
Rear shock mounting hardware is easy to overlook, but worn bushings, reducers or spacers can cause play at the shock eyelet, unwanted noise and poor alignment in the frame. These genuine FOX replacement parts are for selected rear-shock mounting setups and include standard DU-bushing hardware, crush-washer hardware and a roller-bearing eyelet kit.
This listing contains individual hardware options, not a universal rear-shock mounting kit. The hardware must match both the shock eyelet and the frame mounting dimensions. Mounting hardware is normally ordered separately for each shock eyelet unless the selected option specifically states otherwise.
Understanding the Measurements
The variant name shows the two measurements needed to identify the correct hardware:
- Bolt diameter: Usually 8mm or 10mm
- Mounting width: The total installed hardware width where the shock fits into the frame or linkage
For example, 8mm x 30mm hardware is for an 8mm mounting bolt and a 30mm-wide frame mount. Do not estimate the width or choose the closest-looking option. Even a small difference can cause side play or prevent the shock from sitting correctly in the frame.
Hardware Options
- DU Bushing Hardware: Standard mounting hardware for compatible FOX shock eyelets
- Crush Washer Hardware: Aluminium or stainless-steel reducer and spacer options in a wide range of widths
- Roller Bearing Eyelet Kit: Replaces a standard eyelet bushing with a bearing assembly on compatible shocks and frames
Before You Order
Check the hardware on your existing shock or confirm the required size from your bike manufacturer’s specification. You need the exact bolt diameter and frame mounting width for each shock eyelet. Many full-suspension frames use different hardware at the upper and lower shock mounts.
If you have a FOX shock, use its serial number or four-digit product code in the FOX Bike Tech Help Center to identify the shock, then confirm the required mounting size from the frame manufacturer or by measuring the existing hardware.
Our Thoughts
This is one of those small jobs where accuracy matters more than guesswork. If there is movement at the shock eyelet or the mounting hardware is worn, replacing it can remove play and noise. A knock can also come from frame bearings, loose pivot hardware or the shock itself, so check the source before ordering parts.
Measure both ends of the shock separately and order the exact size for each mount.
