About this kit

N3 Rear Shock Pair, fitment-checked

Rough Country 23175_A is a pair of N3 rear shocks for the 2005-2010 Dodge Dakota and 2011 Ram Dakota in both 4WD and RWD form. These are valved for trucks already running 4.5 inches of suspension lift, so confirm your current lift height before ordering. Sold as a pair and covered by a 3 Year Limited Warranty.

This N3 rear shock pair for the 2005-2010 Dodge Dakota and 2011 Ram Dakota suits 4WD and RWD trucks across the listed submodels, from ST and SXT up through Laramie, Sport, TRX, and TRX4. It is a lift-specific application: only trucks set up with 4.5 inches of suspension lift are covered. 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 longer runs. Rough Country lists installation at 1-2 hours for the pair.
