2017+ Super Duty Rear Shock Skid Kit

Description

A rear lower shock skid kit for the 2017–2026 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty that shields the bottom of the shocks and the rear axle shock mounts from rock damage. Laser cut from 3/16" steel, MIG welded in-house and bolted on using the shock bolt.

The bottom of the rear shock and its axle mount hang low, right where rocks and ledges hit first. A crushed shock eye or a bent mount can take a truck off the trail. This kit puts steel under both so the rocks hit the skid instead.

What Is In The Kit

  • 2 shock skid welded assemblies
  • 2 longer shock bolts
  • 2 rear mount bolt kits

Why Protect The Lower Shock Mounts

On a solid rear axle, the lower shock mount sits on the axle itself, which makes it one of the lowest points under the back of the truck. Drag it over a rock or drop it onto a ledge and the shock body, the shock eye and the mount take the impact directly.

A steel skid underneath turns that hit into a slide. The skid takes the contact, and the shock and mount behind it stay protected.

How It Is Built

  • CNC laser cut from 3/16" steel and precision bent for accuracy.
  • MIG welded in-house for durability and strength.
  • Finished in black textured powder coat for corrosion resistance.
  • Uses the shock bolt for strength, with a secondary rear bolt that secures the assembly and keeps everything aligned under heavy use.

⚠️ WARNING:
 Improper cleaning can permanently damage the anodic coating on billet aluminum parts, causing fading, staining, or discoloration. 

SOAPS / CLEANERS THAT DAMAGE :
High-pH (alkaline) soaps, degreasers, and acidic wheel cleaners can fade, stain, or strip anodized aluminum, especially when they contain sodium hydroxide (lye) or other strong acids. Heavy-duty fast-acting alkaline cleaners designed for engine bays or wheels should not be used on anodized surfaces.

❌ WHAT TO AVOID :
High-pH (alkaline) cleaners
• Heavy-duty degreasers
• Wheels / engine bay cleaners
• Oven cleaners (e.g., Yellow Cap, Easy-Off)
• Products containing sodium hydroxide (lye)
• Damage the anodic coating 
Hot Surfaces
• Never wash in direct sunlight, as heat accelerates chemical damage
 Acidic cleaners
• Wheel cleaners with strong acids
• Nitric or sulfuric-based cleaners
• Aggressive aluminum cleaners
 Aluminum brighteners or etchers

• Products designed for raw or polished aluminum can strip the anodized coating

✅ HOW TO PROTECT ANODIZED ALUMINUM:

pH-neutral soaps 
• only use cleaners with a pH between 6–8
Wash on cool surfaces
• Avoid direct sunlight or hot parts
Test small areas first
• Always try new products on a small, hidden area
Safe Alternatives:
• Isopropyl alcohol (used carefully and sparingly)
• Mild Automotive Car Wash Soap

⚠️ RESPONSIBILITY NOTICE:
Damage caused by improper cleaning chemicals or detailing products is the sole responsibility of the owner. Keeping your anodized parts clean with the right products will help maintain their finish and extend their lifespan.
