I'm looking to upgrade my heckler's shock to a dhx 5.0 (coil). I can get the shock, but my fox dealer does'nt have the mounting hardware for a heckler. he says he'll have to order it, which will take months, and simply suggested getting a machine shop to do it.
SC told me I needed a 22 mm wide bolt front and rear. But I have no idea what I need to have done.
Can anyone tell me where to I can get this hardware online?
Or better yet, can anyone show me a pic or a diagram of the DHX hardware on a heckler, so at least I know what I need to have done by the machine shop? Thanks.

Call Fox directly and they can send you the right ones. Who ever told you it would take months to get is wrong. Getting a machine shop to do would be expensive and would probably take too long.

Call SC, the manufacturers are responsible for adapting the shocks to fit their frame, so they either use a "standard" setup, that you can get from either SC or Fox, or they use a proprietary mount made by SC. I'd put in a call to SC first, that is unless the DHX doesn't come on that bike in any stock form.

I've emailed SC already and they referred me to Fox. Fox hasnt come back to me yet, though.

Best time to call Fox, is early in the morning their time or right before they close.
