About this kit

N3 Front Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 23197_C is a pair of N3 front shocks for the 1991-1994 Ford Explorer in 4WD and RWD form. They fit only vehicles running between 0 and 0.5 in of suspension lift, so confirm your current setup first. Ships as one N3 shock pair. Covered by a 3 Year Limited Warranty.

These N3 front shocks for the 1991-1994 Ford Explorer 4WD and RWD cover Eddie Bauer, Limited, Sport, XL, and XLT submodels, and they are intended only for trucks with 0 to 0.5 in of suspension lift. Each shock uses 10-stage variable valving, a nitrogen charge to limit fade, a 35mm piston inside a 54mm body, and an 18mm chromed hardened piston rod. Rough Country lists an install time of 1-2 hours for the pair. The box holds one N3 shock pair, so plan on doing both front corners at once.
