Description
The aFe Control Sway-A-Way 2.0 Rear Shock Kit (afe302-0052-01) is a direct-fit, high-performance rear shock upgrade engineered specifically for 2004–2008 Ford F-150 2WD trucks. Designed using over 20 years of Sway-A-Way race-proven shock technology, this kit delivers improved ride control, enhanced durability, and consistent damping performance without sacrificing everyday comfort.
These shocks feature 2.0-inch diameter bodies that provide increased oil capacity over factory shocks, improving heat management and resistance to fade during spirited driving or light off-road use. The piggyback reservoir design simplifies installation while increasing oil volume and cooling efficiency, ensuring reliable performance under varying conditions.
Each shock is built with CNC-machined aluminum components, bright zinc-plated steel cylinder bodies, and 5/8-inch polished Nitro Steel shafts for exceptional strength, corrosion resistance, and long service life. Internally, the shocks are filled with specifically formulated 7wt fully synthetic shock oil and protected by a multi-seal carrier system to prevent leakage and contamination.
Designed and manufactured 100% in the USA, this rear shock kit bolts directly into the factory mounting locations with no drilling, cutting, or vehicle modifications required. Fully rebuildable and adjustable using simple tools, these shocks are an excellent long-term suspension solution for F-150 owners seeking improved control, durability, and ride quality.
