aFe 420-401001RJ Johnny O'Connell Rear Shock Set for C6 Corvette
The aFe CONTROL Johnny O'Connell Rear Shock Set 420-401001RJ is a matched pair of rear dampers for the 2005-2013 C6 Corvette. Tuned with input from championship Corvette racer Johnny O'Connell, these gas-charged monotube shocks use a revised damping curve to improve rear suspension control while retaining stock ride height.
As C6 Corvette rear shocks age, the car can feel less settled over bumps and during fast transitions. Replacing both rear dampers with this direct-fit pair restores a matched damping foundation without adding external adjustments or requiring permanent vehicle modification.
