About this kit

N3 Front Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 23282_A is a pair of N3 front shocks for the 1970-1976 Ford F-100 4WD. They fit only trucks already running 6.5-7.5 inches of suspension lift, so measure your current setup before ordering. Covered by a 3 Year Limited Warranty.

These N3 front shocks for the 1970-1976 Ford F-100 4WD ship as a pair and suit Base, Custom, Northland, Ranger, and Ranger XLT applications listed in the fitment section. The lift range is the deciding fact: they are valved for trucks with 6.5-7.5 inches of suspension lift, not stock height. Inside each body is a 10-stage variable valving stack, a 35mm piston, and a chromed 18mm rod running in a 54mm housing on nitrogen charge, with military-spec fluid rated to -40 degrees Celsius. Rough Country lists installation at 1-2 hours.
