About this kit

N3 Front Shock Pair, fitment-checked

Rough Country 23178_D is a front N3 shock pair for 2001-2010 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD and GMC Sierra 2500 HD trucks, in both 4WD and RWD. These only work on trucks already running 5.5-7 in of suspension lift, and the part number covers two shocks. Carries a 3 Year Limited Warranty.

This N3 front shock pair for the 2001-2010 Silverado 2500 HD and Sierra 2500 HD covers WT through LTZ and SL through SLT trims, plus the 2001-2005 Silverado 2500, 2001-2004 Sierra 2500, and the 2007 Classic bodies, in 4WD and RWD. Check your lift height first: the valving is matched to trucks with 5.5-7 in of suspension lift. Each shock uses 10-stage variable valving, a 35mm piston, an 18mm chromed piston rod, and a 54mm body, charged with nitrogen and filled with fluid rated to -40 degrees Celsius. Rough Country lists a 1-2 hours install time.
