Rockshox hardware alternative

[PJO]

Looking to get some 8x20mm hardware for a Super Deluxe I bought recently.
Hard to find any Rockshox hardware in stock in Aus. and OS sellers wont post.
Can I just use same size hardware from a different manufacturer?

Close thread found my answer here.

Measuring Mounting Hardware

Here's a quick step through guide on how to measure 'mounting hardware' for your rear shock. ________ 1) With the shock removed, measure the distance between the shock mounting tabs on your frame, ideally using an electronic vernier. Note, front and rear mounting tabs are often different, so...

I think it was around a week and a half, 2 weeks. Pretty quick in the current climate.

I had the same issue recently, my rockshox shock uses bearings and according to the distributor official replacements from RS themselves were unlikely to arrive this year ..... thankfully my shock was compatible with the fox bearing kit so used that instead.

I may have some 8x20mm aluminium "pins" that came on a shock I bought. They are for the igus type bushes.

Sounds promising. Just the pin or the spacers as well?
If spacers then do you mean the Fox flanged IGUS bushings?

Sorry @PJO, just checked them and they are 22mm.

Hit up NS Dynamics in Brissy, they can machine hardware if needed, but I’d imagine standard RS hardware should be readily available.

Mounting Hardware (Single Eyelet)

Mounting hardware to suit Ohlins, Cane Creek, DVO, Fox, Rockshox, Marzocchi, and more. Hardware is for one end of shock only, if you have a shock with an eyelet on both ends you will need to order two ends of hardware.

Could've gone with these guys too but I wanted some non-flanged polymer DU bushings and Cyclinic didn't appear have any...
