Fox Mounting Hardware Kit for IGUS Bushing Shocks

You likely need a replacement if you notice play or movement at the shock eyelet when you lift the bike by the saddle. This movement often manifests as a clicking sound or a feeling of looseness in the rear suspension while riding.

No, this specific kit is designed only for Fox shocks that utilize IGUS bushing systems. It is not compatible with shocks that use needle bearings or other mounting standards.

The eye width, or mounting width, is the distance between the two mounting points on your bike's frame where the shock attaches. This kit is specifically sized at 21.8mm, so you must verify that your frame's shock mount spacing matches this measurement before purchasing.

You can typically install this kit with standard bicycle tools, such as a set of hex keys or wrenches. While it is a straightforward replacement, ensure you have a way to safely remove the old hardware without damaging the shock eyelet.

IGUS bushings are designed to work with specific surface finishes and materials to reduce friction and wear. Using the correct aluminum hardware ensures the bushing slides smoothly and prevents premature degradation of the shock's internal components.
