About this part

N3 Loaded Strut Pair, fitment-checked

Rough Country 501003 is a pair of N3 lifted loaded struts for the 2004–2008 Ford F-150 4WD and AWD, plus the 2004 F-150 Heritage 4WD. Each strut arrives with the coil already assembled. These struts fit only trucks with 6 inches of lift and are meant to take the place of existing strut spacers — they cannot be run together with a spacer.

This N3 loaded strut pair for the 2004–2008 Ford F-150 4WD/AWD is a bolt-on swap for trucks already sitting on 6 inches of lift, including 2004 F-150 Heritage 4WD models and F-150 trims from XL through Limited shown in the fitment section. The pre-assembled coil keeps the job simple; Rough Country lists an install time of 1-2 hours, and a downloadable installation guide is available. Each strut uses a 1 3/8in bore, nitrogen charging, and velocity-sensitive valving matched to the application. Confirm your truck's existing lift and that no strut spacer stays in place before ordering.
