N3 Loaded Strut Pair, fitment-checked

Rough Country 501161_B is an N3 loaded strut pair for the 2003-2009 Toyota 4Runner 4WD and 2007-2009 FJ Cruiser 4WD. Each strut ships with the coil already preloaded, so no strut disassembly is needed. It fits only vehicles running 2 inches of lift, cannot be paired with a strut spacer, and does not fit PRO Series, KDSS, or X-REAS models.

This N3 loaded strut pair for the 2003-2009 Toyota 4Runner 4WD and 2007-2009 FJ Cruiser 4WD arrives assembled with its coil, which keeps the job to a bolt-on swap in a home garage. Rough Country lists an install time of 2-3 hours. The nitrogen-charged N3 design uses a 1 3/8 in bore, velocity-sensitive valving matched to the application, and a hardened chrome piston rod. Check your setup first: it suits vehicles at 2 inches of lift, will not work alongside a strut spacer, and rules out PRO Series, KDSS, and X-REAS trucks.
