About this kit
N3 Front Shocks, fitment-checked
A pair of Rough Country N3 front shocks for the 1997-2003 Ford F-150 4WD. These are lift-specific: they fit only trucks already running 1.5-2.5 inches of suspension lift, so measure your setup before ordering. Nitrogen-charged, with 10-stage variable valving and a 35mm piston. Carries a 3 Year Limited Warranty.
This N3 front shock pair for the 1997-2003 Ford F-150 4WD covers Base, XL, XLT, Lariat, and King Ranch trims in the fitment list, and it is matched to a specific ride height — trucks with 1.5-2.5 inches of suspension lift only. Internally, the shocks use 10-stage variable valving, a 35mm piston riding on a chromed 18mm rod, and a 54mm body for heat shedding, with military-spec fluid rated to -40 degrees Celsius. Rubber bushings damp noise at the mounts. Rough Country lists installation at 1-2 hours for the pair.
