About this kit

N3 Front Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 23204_C is a pair of N3 front shocks for 1977-1986 Chevrolet C30 and K30 and GMC C35/C3500/K35/K3500 trucks. They are valved for trucks already running 4.5-5.5 inches of suspension lift, so confirm your lift height before ordering. Sold as a pair, and covered by a 3 Year Limited Warranty.

These N3 front shocks fit 1977-1986 Chevy C30 and K30 and GMC C35, C3500, K35, and K3500 trucks in both RWD and 4WD form, across Cheyenne, Custom Deluxe, Scottsdale, Silverado, High Sierra, Sierra Classic, and Sierra Grande trims listed in the fitment section. The one qualifier that matters most: they are built only for trucks carrying 4.5-5.5 inches of suspension lift. The N3 design uses multi-stage variable valving, a nitrogen charge, and a chromed hardened piston rod. The kit ships as a pair, with a stated install time of 1-2 hours.
