Frequently Asked Questions
What does 8X46.0 mean?
8X46.0 indicates an 8 mm diameter bolt/sleeve and a 46.0 mm assembly length. In practice this matches a 1/2" shock-eye interface with a total mount length of 46 mm, so it’s sized to sit correctly in compatible RockShox rear shock and frame mounts.
Does this kit include bolts, sleeves, or bushings?
The RockShox 8X46.0 kit is a three-piece assembly (typically bolt, sleeve/spacer and an opposing piece) intended to replace the external mounting hardware. It does not include pressed-in frame bearings or internal shock bushings — those must be inspected and replaced separately if worn.
Will this fit my non-RockShox shock?
It may fit other shocks or frames that use an 8 mm/46 mm mounting spec, but compatibility is not guaranteed. Always verify the bolt diameter and required assembly length from your shock or frame documentation before installing non-OEM hardware.
What torque should I use when installing?
Follow the torque specification provided by your shock or frame manufacturer — those specs ensure proper clamping without overstressing components. If unsure, consult the RockShox service manual or a qualified mechanic rather than guessing a torque value.
Can I reuse threadlocker or anti-seize?
Use products only if recommended by the shock or frame manufacturer. A light application of anti-seize can be useful on alloy interfaces, while a specified removable threadlocker may be required in some applications. Check factory service instructions first to avoid damaging parts or warranties.
How often should I replace shock mounting hardware?
Inspect mounting bolts and sleeves during every major service or at least annually if you ride frequently. Replace hardware if you see corrosion, rounded heads, play in the mount, or any signs of wear — fresh hardware preserves shock alignment and extends suspension life.
Buying Guide
When buying rear shock mounting hardware, the two critical numbers to match are bolt diameter and assembly length. The RockShox 8X46.0 kit is for 8 mm (1/2") mounts with an approximate 46.0 mm length — match those specs to your shock and frame. Buying OEM hardware like RockShox part 11.4118.091.848 guarantees correct tolerances and finish, which helps protect both the shock eyelet and the frame pivot. Plan to inspect and replace related components at the same time: worn bushings, sleeves, or pressed-in bearings can cause premature wear even with new bolts. If you’re unsure, bring your bike or the old hardware to a trusted mechanic to confirm fitment before buying.
