Because the hardware holding your suspension deserves just as much attention as the shocks themselves.
ARP has built its reputation around manufacturing precision fasteners for demanding performance applications.
Our FXR rear shock kit features ARP 12-point bolts and matching 12-point nuts, providing a coordinated fastening system for the intended mounting locations.
The 12-point design offers a distinctive performance look and allows installation with the appropriately sized 12-point tool.
These aren't random bolts pulled from a hardware bin.
The ARP fasteners in this kit are manufactured to Imzz Elite specifications for the intended application.
Quality fasteners. Proper application. No unnecessary shortcuts.
Performance hardware should look as good as it functions.
Each kit includes four Imzz Elite billet aluminum beauty washers to finish the exposed rear shock mounting hardware.
These washers create a clean, detailed appearance around the bolt heads and complement the precision-machined look of the ARP fasteners.
They're the finishing touch that takes a simple hardware replacement and makes it look intentional.
The details make the build.
Black Oxide
For riders who prefer a dark, understated appearance.
Black Oxide ARP hardware is an excellent visual match for black shocks, blacked-out suspension components, and aggressive FXR builds.
Black oxide is a conversion coating rather than a thick decorative plating. It requires regular care to maintain its protective finish.
Stainless Steel
For riders who prefer a bright, clean hardware appearance and the corrosion-resistant properties of stainless steel.
Stainless steel complements polished aluminum, machined suspension components, and classic FXR styling.
Available in Black Oxide or Stainless Steel.
Designed to fit all Harley-Davidson FXR models, according to the supplied kit fitment designation.
Suitable for FXR rear shock mounting applications using the intended mounting configuration.
Fitment Notes
Intended for Harley-Davidson FXR rear shock mounting locations
Includes four bolts and four nuts for the complete kit
Verify compatibility with aftermarket shocks, spacers, bushings, and modified mounting arrangements
Custom suspension configurations may require additional fitment verification
If your FXR has modified shock mounts or nonstandard suspension hardware, confirm the required mounting dimensions before ordering.
Black oxide is a chemical conversion coating applied to steel fasteners.
Unlike paint or thick decorative plating, black oxide creates a dark finish with minimal dimensional buildup.
It's commonly used on precision fasteners where maintaining dimensional consistency is important.
Deep black appearance
Minimal coating thickness
Clean performance styling
Some corrosion protection when properly maintained with a protective oil film. We love Silikroil!
Important: Black oxide is not rust-proof and should not be treated like a maintenance-free coating.
If your Black Oxide ARP hardware arrives with a light oily film, that's intentional.
The oil helps protect the black oxide surface against moisture and corrosion during storage and handling.
It's part of maintaining the finish—not a manufacturing defect.
Follow the appropriate fastener installation instructions, including any specified thread preparation or lubricant requirements.
Yes, black oxide steel fasteners can develop surface oxidation or rust if exposed to moisture, road grime, or other corrosive conditions without proper maintenance.
Black oxide provides limited corrosion resistance on its own, which is why protective oil and regular cleaning matter.
Clean and dry the hardware after washing your motorcycle
Remove moisture and road grime promptly
Periodically wipe exposed surfaces with an appropriate corrosion-inhibiting product
Inspect the hardware regularly, especially after riding in wet conditions
Pay attention to areas where water can collect around mounting hardware
For exposed surfaces, a small amount of a suitable protectant such as WD-40 or Silikroil may help maintain the finish. Keep products away from tires, brake components, and other surfaces where contamination could affect operation.
Preventive maintenance is much easier than trying to restore neglected black oxide hardware.
Once oxidation or rust begins to develop, bringing back the original dark appearance can be difficult.
A few minutes of regular care can help preserve the finish and appearance of your ARP hardware.
Rear shock mounting hardware is a safety-critical part of your motorcycle's suspension.
Correct installation is essential.
Before installation:
Confirm the kit is correct for your FXR and shock mounting configuration.
Inspect the shock mounts, bushings, sleeves, and spacers for wear or damage.
Follow the motorcycle and suspension manufacturer's installation instructions.
Use the specified torque values and any required thread-locking or lubrication procedures.
Verify that all mounting components are correctly positioned.
Confirm adequate clearance and unrestricted suspension movement.
Reinspect the mounting hardware according to the applicable service recommendations.
Do not substitute generic torque specifications for the correct hardware and suspension application.
If your motorcycle uses aftermarket shocks or modified mounting points, confirm the installation requirements with the suspension manufacturer.
Whether you're working on a factory-style restoration or a full performance FXR, this kit is an easy way to give your rear suspension mounting points a more finished appearance.
A great addition when:
Replacing worn or corroded shock mounting hardware
Installing compatible aftermarket rear shocks
Restoring a classic FXR
Refreshing suspension components
Building a performance-oriented FXR
Coordinating ARP hardware throughout the motorcycle
The right hardware completes the build.
At Imzz Elite, we've been working with Harley-Davidson performance parts and hardware since 1996.
We're serious about the little details because those details are what separate a thrown-together motorcycle from a properly finished build.
Our ARP hardware kits are put together with specific applications in mind—not simply to swap a factory bolt for something shiny.
We want riders to have quality components that look right, fit their intended application, and complement the rest of the motorcycle.
