About this kit

N3 Front Shock Pair, fitment-checked

A pair of Rough Country N3 front shocks (23204_J) for 1988–2000 Chevrolet and GMC K3500 4WD trucks. These fit only trucks already running 6.5-7.5" of suspension lift, so measure your setup before ordering. The kit ships as one N3 Shock Pair and carries a 3 Year Limited Warranty.

These N3 front shocks for the 1988–2000 Chevrolet and GMC K3500 4WD are positioned for one narrow lift window: trucks with 6.5-7.5" of suspension lift. Covered submodels run from Base, Cheyenne, Scottsdale and Silverado on the Chevrolet side to Sierra SL, SLE, SLT and SLX on the GMC side. Each shock uses 10-Stage variable valving, a 35mm piston in a 54mm body, an 18mm chromed piston rod, and nitrogen charging to limit fade. Rough Country lists installation at 1-2 hours. Confirm your current lift height and drivetrain in the fitment section first.
