N3 Rear Shock Pair, fitment-checked

A pair of Rough Country N3 rear shocks (23148_J) for 1970-1976 Ford F-100 4WD and 1976-1979 Ford F-150 4WD. These fit only trucks already running 3.5-5.5 in of suspension lift, so measure your setup before ordering. The kit ships as one N3 shock pair and carries a 3 Year Limited Warranty.

This N3 rear shock pair for the 1970-1976 Ford F-100 4WD and 1976-1979 Ford F-150 4WD is a lift-specific replacement, not a stock-height part: it fits only trucks equipped with 3.5-5.5 in of suspension lift. Each shock uses 10-stage variable valving, a 35mm piston in a 54mm body, and a chromed 18mm piston rod, with nitrogen charging to limit fade on rough ground. Rough Country lists install time at 1-2 hours for the pair. Covered submodels run from Base and Custom through Ranger XLT and Lariat trims shown in the fitment section.
