I already bought the frame and Wing said I need to buy bushings(mounting hardware) separately since they don't sell it. Please somebody tell me where can I buy it?
bike-components, bike-discount, r2bike, bike24, enduroforkseals, aliexpress, may be nearest suspension dealer, good workshop to turn out the part on a lathe.
...or is 160mm compatible ...?
Compatible

Am I right in thinking that I don't need to order any mounting hardware or bolt for the shock?  I.E. frame comes with most of the stuff, and the following that comes with the Manitou Mara should cover the rest?
All bolts are included. You need 1 piece of mounting hardware kit 8x30mm

Hi there,  as far as I understood "2vrs max" means that there is no cage inside of the bearing, only metal spheres, which makes them much stronger against force.
Max - exactly. 2 vrs is a type of seals.

So if the usual F6901 2RS has the same geometry, one could use that as spare? I didn't look on the bearing type I have to admit. So I can't confirm whether the geometry is the same or not.
The measurements is the same.
May be we can use not flanged bearings. But the main question is whether they will fit correctly into the frame seats and whether they will not be overtightened during installation.

I don't believe this has been reported before.  Can others confirm?
I could disassemble the frame again, like a few days ago (for full maintenance), but I'm too lazy to do it for one photo.
I can give you the information that I added to my notes for further purchase of spare parts:
Lower pivot - F6901 VRS MAX - 2 bearings
Other pivots - F6801 VRD MAX - 8 bearings
The view of Fxxxx is


Also you can find F(flange)xxxxE(extended inner race), but it is not our type.

Did you know that not regular bearings are installed on the frame? Not only are they of the Max type, they are also with a flange. And you definitely won't be able to buy them at the nearest store.

I have found a Fox shock which is 42.5mm x165mm. Can this fit the frame? Or is it limited to the 40mm x 165mm shock?
It's ok. You can find confirmation in previous messages of this topic.

Wow, a headset now have a new compression ring. Because my headset began to backlash.
"There is no protection of the bearings from dirt."
JvanJ, you can see my photos a few pages ago. I'm made a protection with a piece of old tube.

I am considering solving the problem by drilling a couple of small holes in front of BB.
My frame already had a hole at the BB

How did you manage in front brake cable to go through the headset and handlebar?
Google it - ACR Headset

Rad! What length fork is that?
I think, 120mm. It is Fox SC 34. So far, I have not seen this 100 mm fork from anyone.
--------------

I also faced the problem of the backlash of the rear wheel due to the axle being too long. It just rests against the bolt of the deraileur hanger and does not pull the hub in rear triangle to the end. Moreover, my axle was not from the Carbonda, but was cutted according to their sizes. For a temporary solution to the problem, I used a thick plastic washer.
