About this kit

N3 Rear Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 23271_D is a pair of N3 rear shocks for the 1981-1985 Jeep Scrambler 4WD. They are matched to rigs already running 3-3.5 in of suspension lift, so confirm your current lift height first. Nitrogen-charged with 10-stage variable valving, and covered by a 3 Year Limited Warranty.

This N3 rear shock pair fits the 1981-1985 Jeep Scrambler 4WD in Base, Laredo, Renegade, SL, and SR trims, and only on rigs measuring 3-3.5 in of suspension lift. Each shock uses a 54mm body with a 35mm piston and a chromed, hardened 18mm rod, with 10-stage variable valving handling the damping and high-pressure nitrogen keeping fade down. Military-spec fluid is rated to -40 degrees Celsius, and the housing carries a 36kN tensile rating. Rubber bushings and a spring-loaded rod seal round out the build. Rough Country lists install time at 1-2 hours for the pair.
