Rough Country's N3 rear shocks give your 2017-2018 F-150 Raptor the damping control it needs to handle lifted suspension without beating you up on the trail or the highway. Built around a 54mm shock body, 10-stage variable valving, and military-spec fluid, these shocks deliver consistent performance whether you're crawling over rocks or cruising at speed. Sold as a pair, they install in 1-2 hours with basic hand tools and no fabrication required.
10-stage variable valving for precise damping control. Rather than a fixed damping rate, the N3 valving adjusts across ten stages to match the demand of the terrain, smoothing out highway chatter while still absorbing hard hits off-road. The result is a shock that handles both daily driving and aggressive trail use without compromise.
A 54mm shock body keeps heat in check. Larger body diameter means more surface area to shed heat during extended off-road use. Combined with a high-pressure nitrogen charge, shock fade stays off the table even during intense sessions on rough terrain.
Built to handle heavy loads and hard impacts. The 18mm chromed hardened piston rod resists corrosion and bending under stress, while the 36kN tensile strength rating means these shocks endure the kind of punishment lifted trucks encounter. Military-spec fluid rated to -40 degrees Celsius keeps performance consistent in extreme cold, and natural rubber bushings absorb vibration to reduce road noise at any temperature.
