Upgrade your 2005–2013 C6 Corvette to aftermarket performance shocks or coilovers without triggering factory suspension-control warnings with the aFe CONTROL Electronic Shock Delete Modules.
Designed for Corvettes originally equipped with GM Magnetic Ride Control (MagneRide), these plug-and-play modules electronically simulate the presence of the factory adjustable shock absorbers, allowing owners to replace their electronic dampers with conventional suspension components.
Without the appropriate electronic bypass, removing the factory MagneRide shocks can trigger suspension warning messages and potentially activate a vehicle speed restriction. The aFe CONTROL system addresses this issue by maintaining the expected electrical connection to the factory suspension-control system.
Featuring GM-style Metri-Pack connectors, abrasion-resistant braided wiring, and anodized aluminum heat sinks, these modules provide a durable, vehicle-specific solution for performance suspension conversions.
Each kit includes four electronic shock-delete modules, providing a complete solution for all four corners of the vehicle.

The C6 Corvette's factory Magnetic Ride Control suspension offers electronically adjustable damping, but owners pursuing more aggressive handling characteristics may prefer conventional performance shocks or adjustable coilovers.
Aftermarket suspension systems can provide additional ride-height adjustment, spring-rate options, and damping characteristics tailored to street performance, autocross, or road-course driving.
However, replacing factory MagneRide shocks introduces an electrical challenge.
The Corvette's suspension-control system expects to communicate with the original electronic dampers. When those dampers are disconnected, the vehicle may display suspension-control warnings and potentially impose a speed restriction.
The aFe CONTROL Mag Ride Delete Harness solves this problem by providing electronic modules that simulate the expected shock connections.
This allows owners to remove the factory electronic dampers and install compatible conventional suspension components while maintaining the necessary electrical interface with the factory control system.
Unlike solutions that require cutting factory wiring or modifying vehicle electronics, the aFe system utilizes plug-and-play connectors designed for the original shock wiring.
For Corvette owners upgrading to aftermarket shocks or coilovers, these modules are an important supporting component that helps make the suspension conversion straightforward and properly integrated.
Convert your C6 Corvette from factory Magnetic Ride Control to aftermarket performance suspension with aFe CONTROL Electronic Shock Delete Modules—featuring plug-and-play installation, durable construction, and a complete four-corner solution.
