Ridetech 2015+ Ford F150 Rear HQ Shock Absorber - Single

This is the rear HQ shock absorber for 2015-2026 Ford F-150 trucks, sold as a single unit. Ridetech built it to run with their own 5-inch lowering kit, so it's matched to that dropped ride height instead of stock. It goes in place of the stock rear shock on a truck that's already dropped with that kit.

Why Upgrade to the Ridetech HQ Rear Shock

• Matched to Ridetech's 5-inch lowering kit, so it's valved and sized for that dropped ride height instead of stock.
• Sold as a single rear shock, so you can replace one side without buying a pair.
• [VERIFY: additional benefits Ridetech states for the HQ shock line, such as valving detail, ride quality, or load rating, beyond what Ridetech gave us here.]

Fitment Notes

Fits 2015-2026 Ford F-150: Base, plus Raptor (2017-2026) and Tremor (2021-2026). Does not fit F-150 Lightning or Raptor R.

Install and Honest Talk

This rear HQ shock is built around Ridetech's 5-inch lowering kit, not stock ride height. Put it on a truck that hasn't gone through that lowering kit and the travel and valving won't match what Ridetech set it up for. [VERIFY: install steps, what comes off the truck, tools needed, and whether a re-torque interval applies.] What else you need: Ridetech's 5-inch lowering kit, since this shock is matched to that dropped ride height rather than stock. Check the included instructions for anything else it calls for.

Free US shipping over $99

Orders over $99 ship free by ground to the lower 48 states. Alaska, Hawaii and Canada are not included; shipping to those addresses is calculated at checkout. Some oversize or heavy parts (long-tube exhausts, bumpers, full lift kits) go freight instead of parcel: free to a commercial address with a loading dock, and residential freight delivery carries an additional charge.

When it ships

Parts ship direct from the distributor warehouse that stocks them, so dispatch timing depends on the part, not on a single cutoff. You get a confirmation with tracking as soon as it leaves, and tracking shows the delivery estimate for your address. If a part is backordered we email you an expected availability date.

Missing or damaged items

Report a short shipment or shipping damage within 5 business days of delivery. For a packing error, send us the date or package code printed on the label along with the part number so we can trace it with the warehouse.

We have a 30-day return policy, which means you have 30 days after receiving your item to request a return.

To be eligible for a return, your item must be in the same condition that you received it, unworn or unused, with tags, and in its original packaging. You’ll also need the receipt or proof of purchase.

To start a return, you can contact us at help@anythingcoyote.com or fill our our contact form. If your return is accepted, we’ll send you a return shipping label, as well as instructions on how and where to send your package. Items sent back to us without first requesting a return will not be accepted. 

You can always contact us for any return question at help@anythingcoyote.com.

Refunds
