Product Description

Bring race-inspired precision and everyday usability to your C7 Corvette with the Johnny O’Connell Signature Series shock set from aFe Control. Tuned in collaboration with legendary Corvette racer Johnny O’Connell, these shocks deliver a more controlled, confidence-inspiring ride through corners without sacrificing comfort on the street. They retain OEM-style mounting for a direct-bolt installation—no cutting or custom brackets needed. When paired with matching sway bars, you get a balanced, performance-oriented suspension package that feels dialed on both road and track.

  • Designed for Chevrolet Corvette C7 (2014–2019), 6.2L V8 applications (Stingray, Grand Sport, Z06)

  • OE-style mounting points retained; direct-bolt (no modifications)

  • Works best when matched with the Johnny O’Connell sway bars—tuned as a system 

  • For C7s with Mag-Ride (electronic damping) — you may need an additional delete or bypass module (check application-specific notes) 

  • Not intended for heavily modified suspension geometries (excessive lift/drop beyond OE tolerances may affect performance)

Included

  • Full set of 4 shock absorbers (front and rear)

  • Mounting hardware (bushings, bolts, washers as needed)

  • Installation instructions / guide

  • Warranty paperwork or registration card

Product Specs

  • Damping curve: revised and optimized over OEM for better mid / high-speed control (as tuned by O’Connell) 

  • Retains OE travel envelope and durability targets

  • Material and internal valving: engineered for sustained performance under track/road use (OEM-quality internals)

  • Corrosion protection & finish consistent with OE expectations (sealed, corrosion-resistant components) — implied by “OEM-style” claims

Product Features

  • Driver-tuned by Johnny O’Connell — leverage real experience from a Corvette racer to deliver firm but compliant behavior

  • Revised damping curve designed to smooth out the harshness of stock dampers at higher speeds while tightening body control in transitions

  • OE-style fitment with direct bolt-on design — install using factory mounting points, minimizing disruption or need for custom parts 

  • Balanced ride for street and track — retains comfort for daily driving while improving control when pushed hard

  • Durable construction and reliability — built to OEM standards for longevity under real-world use
