Lifting a Bronco without ruining its daily drivability is a common challenge, and Rough Country's N3 Loaded Struts solve it with a direct bolt-on replacement that adds 2 inches of front lift while preserving a composed, factory-like ride. Each strut arrives pre-loaded with its coil spring, so installation comes down to pulling the stock unit and bolting this one in, no spring compressor required. Nitrogen gas charging keeps shock oil aerated-free under hard use, and application-specific valving ensures the Bronco handles predictably on pavement and trail alike.
Pre-loaded for a straightforward swap. The coil spring comes factory-installed on each strut, eliminating the most time-consuming and dangerous step of a standard strut replacement. Most installs finish in one to two hours with common hand tools.
Application-specific velocity-sensitive valving. Rough Country calibrates each N3 strut for the exact weight, geometry, and travel characteristics of the 2021-2026 Bronco 2-inch lifted configuration. The infinitely variable damping system adjusts in real time to road and trail inputs, keeping the tires planted without transmitting harsh feedback into the cab.
Built to handle the abuse of off-road use. A massive 1-3/8-inch bore pairs with a hardened chrome piston rod that resists corrosion and enhances the seal over the life of the strut. A leak-proof piston seal and specially formulated low-friction shock oil work together to maintain consistent damping performance through extended trail runs and repeated cycles.
Silver powder coat finish. The exterior of each strut body carries a silver powder coat that resists chipping, rust, and the undercarriage grime a Bronco will inevitably collect.
