N3 Rear Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 23173_A is a pair of N3 rear shocks for 1969 Chevrolet C10 Pickup, K10 Pickup, and K10 Suburban applications. They fit only trucks already running 1.5-4.5 in of suspension lift, so confirm your current setup before ordering. The kit ships as one N3 shock pair and carries a 3 Year Limited Warranty.

These N3 rear shocks for the 1969 Chevrolet C10 and K10 are matched to trucks carrying 1.5-4.5 in of suspension lift. Stock-height and taller-lift trucks need a different length. Each unit runs 10-stage variable valving through a 35mm piston in a 54mm body, with a chromed 18mm rod and high-pressure nitrogen charge to hold damping steady as heat builds. Military-spec fluid rated to -40 degrees Celsius keeps the valving predictable in cold weather, and rubber bushings take the edge off vibration at the mounts. Rough Country lists the job at 1-2 hours per the feed data.
