Product Details

Overview & Technology

RockShox Shock Hardware 8X45.0 is a direct OEM replacement mounting kit for rear shocks that use an 8 x 45.0mm pivot. The three-piece assembly is sized as a 1/2" system and listed under SRAM Model ID RS-SPP-A0, making cross-referencing straightforward when servicing your rear suspension. The hardware is manufactured to RockShox tolerances and finished with a corrosion-resistant plating for long life in wet and gritty trail conditions. At just 0.1 lb and compact shipping dimensions (5.6" x 4" x 0.5"), it’s a lightweight, low-profile spare that keeps your bike's kinematics precise and quiet when fitted correctly.

Key Features & Benefits

Three-piece 1/2" assembly: the kit is supplied as a sleeve plus two mating pieces sized to 8x45.0mm for secure clamping of the shock eyelet. That design keeps side-to-side play to a minimum and restores the intended load path from shock to frame. Durable construction with corrosion protection: the parts are manufactured from heat-treated steel and finished with a protective plating to resist rust and abrasion. The result is dependable durability on wet rides and reduced chance of premature wear compared with generic hardware.

Fit, Compatibility & Installation

This part is an OEM RockShox/SRAM replacement (Part # 11.4118.091.847). Use the SRAM Model ID RS-SPP-A0 and the 8x45.0 specification to confirm fitment with your shock and frame. It is intended for rear shock mounts that accept a 1/2" bore sleeve and 45mm length. Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with suspension service: press the sleeve through the shock eyelet, align the internal pieces and torque fasteners to the manufacturer's recommended values. We recommend inspecting bushings and seals during replacement and using anti-seize or light grease on the sleeve per OEM guidance to prevent creak and corrosion.

Who This Is For

This RockShox 8X45.0 kit is ideal for mountain bikers who ride frequently on rough trails and need a reliable, OEM-spec replacement for worn or damaged shock hardware. It's perfect for home mechanics, bike shops servicing RockShox rear shocks, and riders doing a suspension refresh or build. If your bike exhibits side-to-side play at the shock mount, clicking noises under load, or you’re rebuilding the linkage, this small, inexpensive part can restore proper alignment and extend the life of more expensive shock components.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is included in the 3-piece assembly?

The 3-piece Shock Hardware kit is composed of a central sleeve sized 8x45.0mm plus the two mating pieces that form the 1/2" mounting interface. These parts together replace the factory shock eyelet hardware; small bearings or internal bushings may be separate depending on your shock model.

Will this fit my bike/shock?

Check your shock and frame mount measurements against the 8x45.0 specification and verify the SRAM Model ID RS-SPP-A0. If your shock eyelet uses a 1/2" bore with a 45mm length sleeve the part should be compatible. When in doubt, consult your shock’s service manual or send us your bike/shock model and we’ll help confirm fit.

What material and finish are these parts made from?

These are heat-treated steel components with a corrosion-resistant plating applied for durability in trail conditions. The hardening process gives strength to resist deformation under load while the plating helps prevent rust and seizing over time.

Do I need any special tools to install this hardware?

Installation typically requires basic bike tools: appropriate-size sockets or hex keys for suspension bolts, a press or soft-faced mallet to seat the sleeve if necessary, and a torque wrench to tighten to OEM torque specs. If you’re unsure, a professional bike mechanic can fit them quickly.

Should I replace bushings or seals at the same time?

It’s good practice to inspect shock eyelet bushings and seals when changing hardware. If you see wear, play, or deterioration, replace those components simultaneously — new hardware on worn bushings can leave residual play and noise.

Is this covered by a warranty?

As an OEM RockShox part, warranty coverage depends on SRAM/RockShox terms. For questions about manufacturing warranty, contact SRAM/RockShox or check your local dealer. If you purchased from Forest Bikes, refer to our returns and support policy for assistance with defective items.

Buying Guide

When buying rear shock mounting hardware, the two most important specs are the sleeve diameter and the overall length—here 8 x 45.0mm. Match those numbers to your shock and frame measurements, or use the OEM part number (11.4118.091.847) and SRAM Model ID (RS-SPP-A0) to confirm correct fitment. Also inspect the condition of bushings and seals during any hardware swap. A new sleeve mated to worn bushings may not remove play; replacing both at the same time is often the best long-term value and restores quiet, precise suspension performance.
