About this kit

N3 Rear Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 23166_C is a pair of N3 rear shocks for the 1975-1980 International Scout II in 4WD or RWD. They are valved for rigs already running 4.5-6.5 in of suspension lift, so confirm your current lift height before ordering. Sold and shipped as a pair.

These N3 rear shocks fit the 1975-1980 International Scout II in 4WD and RWD form, covering Base, SS2, Terra, Traveler, and XLC submodels. The shock pair applies only to Scouts set up with 4.5-6.5 in of suspension lift — a stock or lightly leveled truck is outside this range. Each unit uses 10-stage variable valving, a 35mm piston in a 54mm body, an 18mm chromed rod, and nitrogen charging, with rubber bushings at the mounts. Rough Country lists an install time of 1-2 hours for the pair. Covered by a 3 Year Limited Warranty.
