If you're looking to up your game on both the trails and the highway, these Rough Country N3 shocks are worth your attention. Seriously, they’ve got this sweet 10-stage variable valving system that makes them adaptable to whatever road (or lack thereof) you throw at them. High-pressure nitrogen charging gives you that plush ride quality while still being tough enough for some serious off-roading.

Now, let’s talk about the build. The 18mm chromed hardened piston rod is no joke—it's designed to handle some serious stress, and with a tensile strength of 36kN, you can expect these shocks to last. The 54mm shock body helps dissipate heat quickly, which is a game-changer when you’re pushing your rig hard. Plus, the natural rubber bushings do a solid job at absorbing vibrations, making your ride smoother overall.

One thing I really appreciate is the military spec fluid; it’s rated to -40°C, so you know these shocks can handle the cold without losing performance. And let’s be honest, they look pretty slick with that metallic silver paint job, too.

Here’s a quick rundown of what you’re getting:
  • 10-Stage Variable Valving for adjustable comfort
  • 3-Year Manufacturer's Warranty—because we all need peace of mind
  • 35mm Piston for better response
  • 36kN Tensile Strength to keep things sturdy
  • 54mm Shock Body for faster heat dissipation
  • Chromed Hardened 18mm Piston Rod for durability
  • High Pressure Nitrogen Charged for that smooth ride
  • Metallic Silver Paint for style points
  • Military Spec Fluid rated to -40°C
  • Rubber bushings for better absorption of bumps
  • Spring Loaded Piston Rod Seal for longevity
Specifications:
  • Category: Shocks & Stabilizers
  • Install Time: About 1-2 hours—grab a buddy and a few tools!
  • Shipping Options: No Restrictions
  • Ships in Multiple Boxes: Yep

As for fitment, these bad boys are compatible with a variety of classic models:

  • Chevrolet Suburban (1969-1991)
