Description
The aFe Sway-A-Way 2.5 Front Shock Kit with Remote Reservoirs (afe301-5600-14) is a high-performance direct-fit front suspension upgrade engineered specifically for 2017–2024 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty 4WD trucks running stock height up to a 1.5-inch lift. Designed for drivers who demand maximum control on-road and superior performance off-road, this kit delivers race-proven durability without sacrificing ride comfort.
These shocks feature a 2.5-inch diameter shock body and incorporate the same race-winning Sway-A-Way engineering refined through 20+ years of off-road competition and testing. The remote reservoir design increases oil capacity and improves heat dissipation, ensuring consistent damping performance under heavy loads, towing, or aggressive off-road use.
Each shock is application-specific tuned for the Super Duty platform, providing balanced damping that enhances stability, handling, and wheel control without creating a harsh ride. The shocks are filled with specifically formulated 7wt fully synthetic shock oil and utilize a multi-seal carrier system to ensure zero leakage and long-term reliability.
Built entirely in the USA, the shocks feature bright zinc-plated steel shock bodies, CNC-machined aluminum components, and 7/8-inch polished Nitro Steel shafts for exceptional strength and corrosion resistance. The included remote reservoir mounting brackets bolt directly to the vehicle—no drilling, welding, or modifications required.
Fully rebuildable using simple tools, this kit is ideal for owners who want a premium, serviceable suspension solution built to perform for years in demanding environments.

Construction & Performance Details
The Sway-A-Way 2.5 front shocks utilize race-grade internal valving tuned specifically for Ford Super Duty weight, suspension geometry, and load demands. The remote reservoir improves cooling and damping consistency during prolonged use, while the high-strength steel shafts and spherical bearings ensure precise suspension articulation under extreme conditions.
The zinc-plated steel shock bodies resist corrosion, and the CNC-machined aluminum components provide tight tolerances and long service life. These shocks are engineered to handle everything from daily driving and towing to high-speed off-road terrain without compromise.
