About this kit

N3 Rear Shock Pair, fitment-checked

Rough Country 23165_F is an N3 rear shock pair for the 2004-2008 Ford F-150, and it fits only trucks already running 6.5-8 in of suspension lift. Two shocks ship together as one pair. Damping comes from 10-stage variable valving with a 35mm piston and 54mm body, and the assembly carries a 3 Year Limited Warranty.

This N3 rear shock pair for the 2004-2008 Ford F-150 covers 4WD, AWD, and RWD applications across the XL, XLT, STX, FX2, FX4, Lariat, King Ranch, Limited, Harley-Davidson Edition, and 60th Anniversary Edition submodels listed in the fitment section. Confirm your truck has 6.5-8 in of suspension lift first, since that lift range is the qualifier for this part. The shock uses a chromed 18mm rod, nitrogen charge, spring-loaded rod seal, and fluid rated to -40 degrees Celsius. Rough Country lists an install time of 1-2 hours for the pair.
