About this kit

N3 Front Shocks, fitment-checked

Lift height is the deciding spec here: this Rough Country N3 front shock pair suits 1975–1980 International Scout II trucks running 5.5-7.5 in of suspension lift. Shocks are sold two to a box. Carries a 3 Year Limited Warranty.

Sized for the taller end of the range, this N3 front shock pair for the 1975–1980 International Scout II is specified only for trucks already carrying 5.5-7.5 in of suspension lift — confirm your lift height first, since the shorter-lift Scout II shocks are a separate part number. Coverage spans Base, SS2, Terra, Traveler, and XLC submodels in 4WD and RWD. The N3 damper runs 10-stage variable valving, a 35mm piston inside a 54mm body, and a chromed 18mm rod with a spring-loaded seal. Nitrogen charging fights fade; military-spec fluid is rated to -40 degrees Celsius.
