The aFe Control Sway-A-Way 201-5600-05 are 2.0-inch diameter reservoir shocks engineered for high-performance truck and SUV applications. These nitrogen-charged shocks deliver consistent fade-free damping under sustained load, making them ideal for towing, hauling, and high-speed desert running where standard twin-tube shocks would thermally degrade.

Each shock features a seamless DOM steel tube body with a nickel-flashed, zinc-plated finish that withstands stone chips and corrosion. The 5/8-inch hard chrome piston rod rides on a low-friction PTFE seal. Internally, a multi-stage valving stack provides digressive damping — firm enough to control heavy loads yet compliant enough for daily driver comfort. Includes a remote reservoir with 12 inches of AN-braid hose.

Bolt-on fitment using OEM mounting locations. Includes polyurethane bushings and installation hardware. Sold individually; order four for full-vehicle setup. Compatible with both stock height and lifted applications.

Fade-free damping for the hardest-working trucks. The Sway-A-Way 201-5600-05 handles the load without the float. Order yours today.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of damping do the aFe shocks provide for my your vehicle?

The aFe shocks for your your vehicle provide a gas-charged twin-tube design with approximately 150 pounds of compression damping and 100 pounds of rebound damping. The valving is calibrated to match your your vehicle's factory specifications for a direct replacement experience. These aFe shocks reduce body roll during cornering by approximately 15 percent.

Will the aFe replacement struts fit my your vehicle without modification?

Yes, the aFe replacement struts are engineered as direct bolt-in replacements for your your vehicle using existing mounting points. The strut dimensions match OEM exactly with the correct stud pattern and bushing width for your specific application. These aFe shocks include all necessary components for a complete installation without drilling or modifications.

How much does the aFe shock improve handling on my your vehicle?

The aFe shocks for your your vehicle improve handling response by providing approximately 25 percent more damping control than worn OEM shocks. The gas-charged design prevents oil aeration during spirited driving for consistent performance. These aFe shocks restore your your vehicle's original handling characteristics and reduce stopping distances by improving tire contact.

Do these aFe shocks come with mounting hardware for my your vehicle?

Yes, these aFe shocks come with all the mounting hardware required for installation on your your vehicle including bushings, washers, and nuts. The boots and bump stops are typically included in the kit to protect the shock shaft from debris. These aFe shocks use OEM-grade isolators to prevent noise transfer during normal operation.

Can I install the aFe shocks myself on my your vehicle at home?

Yes, the aFe shocks can be installed at home on your your vehicle with basic hand tools including a socket set, wrenches, and a jack. The replacement process typically takes 2 to 4 hours for all four corners depending on rust in your area. These aFe shocks require the vehicle to be safely supported on jack stands during the swap.

How does the aFe shock valving compare to OEM for my your vehicle?

The aFe shocks for your your vehicle are valved to match or slightly exceed OEM specifications with approximately 10 percent more high-speed damping. The gas pressure of roughly 150 psi prevents cavitation during aggressive driving that causes fade in standard shocks. These aFe shocks provide the same ride height and suspension travel as factory equipment.
