Construction & Design

The aFe Sway-A-Way shocks are constructed from premium materials engineered to withstand the demanding conditions of off-road driving and everyday use. The polished nitro steel shaft offers exceptional resistance to bending and corrosion, ensuring durability over time. A multi-seal carrier system effectively prevents fluid leaks even under extreme conditions, enhancing shock longevity.

Teflon-lined spherical bearings reduce friction and allow precise suspension articulation, improving ride quality and extending component life. The internal floating piston design separates shock oil from nitrogen gas, preventing aeration and fade during prolonged use. Every component is CNC machined to the strictest standards, guaranteeing a precise fit and consistent performance.
