Product Details

Overview & Technology

RockShox Shock Hardware 8X16.0 is an OEM three-piece mounting kit engineered to restore factory alignment and movement in rear shocks. Supplied as part number 11.4118.091.803 (Forest Bikes SKU 942649) and identified by SRAM as RS‑SPP‑A0, this compact kit is built to RockShox's workshop tolerances for fit and longevity. The kit features a precision-machined steel sleeve combined with press-fit bushings finished in a corrosion-resistant coating. That mix of hardened sleeve and compliant bushings reduces side-to-side play while protecting shock eyelets from premature wear — delivering smooth, repeatable feel from your rear suspension.

Key Features & Real‑World Benefits

Durable, service‑grade construction: The sleeve is heat-treated and machined to close tolerances while the surrounding bushings provide a sacrificial interface to protect frame and shock eyelets. Together they absorb small misalignments and keep the shock operating free of lateral bind. • 3‑piece kit: central sleeve plus two bushings for complete mounting replacement. • Nominal 8 × 16.0 mm sizing: bushing diameter × length for a precise fit — always confirm your bike's spec before ordering. • OEM fit & traceability: RockShox part 11.4118.091.803 / SRAM RS‑SPP‑A0 for direct replacement.

Fit, Compatibility & Installation Notes

This hardware is intended for rear shock eyelet mounts that accept the RockShox 8x16.0 specification. Many modern mountain frames and shocks use metric bushing sizes — check your shock's service manual or measure the eyelet bore to confirm compatibility. Shipping dimensions are compact (5.5" × 4" × 0.5") and weight is 0.1 lb, making this a light, easy spare to keep in your workshop kit. Installation is straightforward for a competent home mechanic: press out the old bushings, press in the new bushings around the sleeve, and reassemble using your shock hardware bolt. Always follow RockShox torque and service recommendations; if in doubt, have a qualified suspension shop fit the kit to ensure alignment and avoid over‑pressing delicate parts.

Who This Is For

This part is aimed at mountain riders and mechanics who maintain RockShox‑equipped bikes and need a genuine OEM replacement for worn or noisy shock mounts. If your rear shock eyelets show play, flattened bushings, or noise under compression, this kit restores correct geometry and helps prevent further eyelet damage. Race teams, wrenching enthusiasts, and trail riders who want the reassurance of factory parts will value the fit, finish and traceability of the RockShox 8X16.0 kit. Keep one as a workshop spare for quick on‑trail repairs or scheduled suspension service.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this kit fit my rear shock?

Check your shock or frame service manual for the bushing size. This kit is specified as nominal 8 × 16.0 mm — measure the eyelet bore or confirm OEM part numbers to ensure compatibility before purchasing.

Does the kit include bushings and the sleeve?

Yes. The RockShox 8X16.0 kit is a three-piece set that includes the central sleeve and the two bushings required to replace a single shock mounting position.

Can I install this at home or should a shop do it?

A competent home mechanic with a press and basic tools can fit this kit safely. However, correct pressing technique and adherence to RockShox torque/service guidance are important — if you lack the tools or experience, have a suspension workshop perform the install.

How often should I replace shock mounting hardware?

Replace mounting hardware whenever you notice lateral play, audible creaks, or visible bushing collapse. Typical intervals vary with use — aggressive or wet conditions accelerate wear — so inspect during routine suspension service.

Is this part interchangeable with other brands?

Some aftermarket bushings and sleeves share similar dimensions, but fit and finish vary. For guaranteed alignment and warranty compatibility, use the RockShox OEM part (11.4118.091.803 / RS‑SPP‑A0).

Do I need grease or anti-seize during installation?

Use a light suspension-safe grease on the bushing faces as recommended by RockShox. Avoid general-purpose anti-seize on press-fit surfaces unless specified; follow the manufacturer's service manual for lubrication guidance.

Buying Guide

When replacing rear shock mounting hardware, prioritize OEM parts for fit and longevity. Match the nominal bushing dimensions (here listed as 8 × 16.0 mm) and check the manufacturer's part number to avoid mismatches that can cause binding or accelerated wear. Keep in mind that correct installation—aligned pressing, proper lubrication, and torque—matters as much as part selection. If you ride aggressively, inspect mounts during each suspension service and carry a spare kit for quick repairs on multi-day rides or remote trail sessions.
