Frequently Asked Questions
What does 8X22.2 mean and will it fit my shock?
8X22.2 indicates the sleeve diameter and length (approx. 8 mm diameter × 22.2 mm length) intended for 1/2" eyelet mountings. To confirm fit, measure your shock eyelet inner diameter and the required sleeve length, or check your shock/frame service manual. If you’re unsure, provide your bike and shock model to Forest Bikes support for verification.
What parts are included in the 3-piece kit?
The kit is sold as a three-piece assembly for a single mounting location and typically includes the mounting sleeve(s) and any spacers/bushings required for a factory fit. Exact included components match RockShox OEM specifications for the RS-SPP-A0 model.
Can I reuse my old hardware if it looks OK?
If hardware shows any signs of corrosion, scoring, or side-to-side play, replacement is recommended. Even small wear on sleeves or bushings can lead to noise and premature frame or shock eyelet damage. For peace of mind and optimal suspension performance, replace worn mounting hardware rather than reusing.
Do I need grease or special tools to install this kit?
Use a light film of suspension-safe grease on the sleeves and bushings during installation to reduce friction and prevent creaks. Installation requires basic shop tools; however, follow the shock and frame manufacturer's torque specs and alignment procedures. If you don't have the correct torque wrench or experience, have a qualified mechanic install it.
How often should I replace shock mounting hardware?
Replacement frequency depends on riding conditions and mileage. Inspect mountings during regular suspension service intervals — typically every 100–200 hours of riding or annually. Replace sooner if you notice play, noise, or visible wear.
Is this part covered by warranty?
Warranty coverage depends on RockShox's and your bike manufacturer's policies. If the hardware fails due to a manufacturing defect, it may be covered; damage from wear, improper installation, or crash incidents is typically excluded. Keep purchase records and consult RockShox or your local dealer for warranty claims.
Buying Guide
When choosing rear shock mounting hardware, match the exact OEM dimensions (diameter and length) and the manufacturer part number whenever possible — factory parts ensure correct tolerances and alignment. Verify the eyelet diameter, pin size and sleeve length on your shock/frame before purchase. Prefer kits with corrosion-resistant treatments and low-friction bushings to extend service life. Keep spare hardware in your workshop or tool roll if you frequently ride in wet or gritty conditions; a small kit can prevent a long walk home or an expensive repair down the line.
