aFe Control Johnny O’Connell Shocks – C6 Corvette (2005-2013)
Transform your C6 Corvette’s ride with aFe Control Johnny O’Connell Shocks, precision-tuned by the four-time Le Mans champion for race-level handling and street comfort. Crafted from hard-anodized 6061-T6 aluminum, these mono-tube shocks feature a floating piston design, separating nitrogen gas and oil for consistent damping. Engineered for race-inspired precision, they eliminate harshness while delivering a planted, responsive feel.
Developed in Corona, California, these shocks undergo rigorous R&D and A/B testing on tracks, mountain passes, and rough roads to ensure racecar-level grip and daily drivability. The revised damping curve softens harsh ride characteristics and stiffens response for quick turn-ins, keeping your C6 stable during aggressive maneuvers. Meeting OEM travel and durability standards, they’re a direct bolt-on upgrade, requiring no modifications, ideal for enthusiasts seeking a “set it and forget it” solution. Compatible with Base, Grand Sport, Z06, and ZR1 models, they’re the only OEM-quality replacements tuned by Johnny O’Connell.
Perfect for autocross, track days, or spirited drives, these shocks offer predictable handling and enhanced control. Pair with aFe’s sway bars for a fully optimized suspension system that delivers championship-level performance.
