About this kit

N3 Rear Shock Pair, fitment-checked

A pair of N3 rear shocks for the 1970–1991 GMC Jimmy and 1983–1991 GMC S15 Jimmy in 4WD or RWD (Rough Country 23230_E). These fit only trucks already set up with 5.5 inches of suspension lift, so confirm your lift height before ordering. Two shocks come in the box.

This N3 rear shock pair suits 1970–1991 GMC Jimmy and 1983–1991 S15 Jimmy applications in both 4WD and RWD, and only on trucks running 5.5 inches of suspension lift. Each shock pairs 10-stage variable valving with a 35mm piston inside a 54mm body and a chromed, hardened 18mm rod, plus high-pressure nitrogen charging to hold damping steady as heat builds. Rubber bushings quiet the ride, and the military-spec fluid is rated to -40 degrees Celsius. Rough Country lists the job at 1-2 hours. Shipping weight: 12.2 lb. Coverage: 3 Year Limited Warranty.
