Description
The aFe Sway-A-Way 2.5 Front Shock Kit with Remote Reservoirs (afe301-5600-15) is a premium direct-fit front suspension upgrade designed specifically for 2017–2024 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty 4WD trucks equipped with 2 to 3.5 inches of lift. Built for drivers who push their trucks hard both on and off the road, this kit delivers race-proven control, durability, and consistency without compromising daily drivability.
These shocks feature a 2.5-inch diameter shock body, incorporating the same race-winning Sway-A-Way engineering backed by over 20 years of off-road testing and competition experience. The remote reservoir design significantly increases oil capacity and improves heat dissipation, ensuring stable damping performance during towing, high-speed desert driving, or demanding off-road terrain.
Each shock is application-specific tuned for the Super Duty platform, providing excellent wheel control, reduced body roll, and predictable handling while maintaining smooth on-road comfort. The shocks are filled with specifically formulated 7wt fully synthetic shock oil and utilize a multi-seal carrier system to eliminate leakage and extend service life.
Manufactured entirely in the USA, these 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. Included remote reservoir mounting brackets bolt directly to the vehicle with no drilling, welding, or modifications required, making installation straightforward.
Fully rebuildable using simple tools, this kit is an ideal solution for lifted Super Duty owners who demand a long-term, serviceable, high-performance suspension system.

Construction & Performance Details
The Sway-A-Way 2.5 front shocks utilize race-grade internal valving specifically tuned for lifted Ford Super Duty trucks, accounting for increased suspension travel, vehicle weight, and load demands. The remote reservoirs reduce heat buildup during aggressive use, while the high-strength steel shafts and spherical bearings provide precise suspension articulation and durability in extreme conditions.
The zinc-plated steel shock bodies resist corrosion in harsh environments, and the CNC-machined aluminum components ensure precise tolerances and long-term reliability. Whether hauling heavy loads, daily driving, or tackling rough terrain, these shocks provide consistent control and confidence.
