About this kit

N3 Rear Shock Pair, fitment-checked

A pair of Rough Country N3 rear shocks for the 2003–2010 Dodge Ram 2500 and the 2011–2013 Ram 2500 in both 4WD and RWD form. These fit only trucks already running 3.5-6 in of suspension lift, so confirm your current lift height before ordering. Sold and shipped as a two-shock set.

This N3 rear shock pair for the 2003–2010 Dodge Ram 2500 and 2011–2013 Ram 2500 covers 4WD and RWD trims from ST and Tradesman up through Laramie Longhorn, including Power Wagon and TRX applications listed in the fitment section. It is a lift-specific damper: the trucks it suits already carry 3.5-6 in of suspension lift. The N3 design uses 10-stage variable valving, a 35mm piston in a 54mm body, and a chromed 18mm rod, with nitrogen charging to limit fade on long washboard runs. Rough Country lists installation at 1-2 hours for the set.
