About this kit
N3 Rear Shocks, fitment-checked
A pair of Rough Country N3 rear shocks (23257_A) for the 2005-2010 Dodge Dakota and 2011 Ram Dakota in 4WD or RWD form. These are lift-specific: they only work on trucks already running 2.5-4 in of suspension lift. Sold and shipped as a pair, with a 3 Year Limited Warranty.
These N3 rear shocks fit the 2005-2010 Dodge Dakota and 2011 Ram Dakota in both 4WD and RWD, across the submodels listed in the fitment section. Check your lift height first — the valving is matched to trucks with 2.5-4 in of suspension lift, so a stock-height or taller setup is the wrong application. The box holds one N3 shock pair, so the rear axle is covered in a single order. Rough Country lists the job at 1-2 hours. Shipping weight: 12.3 lb.
