About this kit

N3 Rear Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 23283_E is a set of N3 rear shocks for the 1977–1979 Ford F-250 4WD, sold as a pair. They are valved for trucks already running 6-7.5 in of suspension lift, so confirm your current lift height before ordering. Covered by a 3 Year Limited Warranty.

These N3 rear shocks for the 1977–1979 Ford F-250 4WD fit Base, Custom, Northland, Ranger, Ranger Lariat, Ranger XLT, and XLT trims in 4WD form, and only on trucks set up with 6-7.5 in of suspension lift. The pair ships together, and Rough Country lists the job at 1-2 hours, which puts it inside a driveway afternoon with basic hand tools. Nitrogen charging, a hardened chromed piston rod, and multi-stage valving handle the damping duties. Check your measured lift height against the 6-7.5 in range first, since these shocks are built for that window rather than stock ride height.
