About this kit

N3 Front Shock Pair, fitment-checked

Rough Country 23239_F is an N3 front shock pair for the 1983–1997 Ford Ranger in 4WD and RWD form. It fits only trucks already running 3.5-4 in of suspension lift, and the shocks come two to a box. Damping comes from a 10-stage variable valving design with a 35mm piston and nitrogen charge.

This N3 front shock pair for the 1983–1997 Ford Ranger 4WD and RWD covers submodels from Base and Custom through XL, XLS, XLT, STX, Splash, Sport, GT, S, and S Plus. Check your lift first: the application is limited to trucks with 3.5-4 in of suspension lift. Each shock uses a 54mm body, an 18mm chromed hardened piston rod, a spring-loaded rod seal, and fluid rated to -40 degrees Celsius, with rubber bushings and a metallic silver finish. Rough Country lists installation at 1-2 hours. Shipping weight: 13.2 lb.
