About this kit
N3 Rear Shock Pair, fitment-checked
Rough Country 23266_H is a pair of N3 rear shocks for the 1959-1968 Jeep CJ5 and the 1966-1968 CJ5A. It fits only vehicles running between 0 and 2.5 in of suspension lift, so measure your setup before ordering. Sold as a pair, and carries a 3 Year Limited Warranty.
These N3 rear shocks suit the 1959-1968 Jeep CJ5 and 1966-1968 CJ5A in Base trim, and the fitment window is narrow: the vehicle must be running 0-2.5 in of suspension lift. The damper uses 10-stage variable valving inside a 54mm body, with a 35mm piston and an 18mm chromed rod, plus a nitrogen charge to keep damping consistent as heat builds. Fluid is rated down to -40 degrees Celsius. Rubber bushings are supplied on the mounts. Rough Country lists an install time of 1-2 hours for the pair; count on standard shock-swap tools and a way to support the axle.
