Factory struts wear out long before the rest of the truck, and replacing them with another set of OEM units leaves performance on the table. Rough Country's Loaded Strut Pair for the 2014-2026 4WD F-150 swaps in nitrogen-charged N3 performance struts with a pre-installed coil spring, restoring a smooth, controlled ride regardless of your ride height. Each unit arrives fully assembled, so installation takes two to three hours with basic hand tools and no spring compressor.
N3 nitrogen charging eliminates fade. A nitrogen gas charge prevents shock oil aeration, keeping damping consistent whether you're on the highway or a washboard dirt road. Combined with special low-friction shock oil and infinitely variable, velocity-sensitive valving, these struts adapt to changing road conditions and deliver the composed, factory-like response that worn OEM units can no longer provide.
Built for durability where factory units fall short. A massive 1-3/8-inch bore and a hardened chrome piston rod resist corrosion and maintain a reliable seal over the long haul. The leak-proof piston seal keeps oil where it belongs, and the silver powder coat finish protects the body from rust and road grime.
Pre-loaded coil means no special tools required. The coil spring arrives already seated on the strut body. Remove the old strut, install the new assembly, and torque it down. No spring compressor, no disassembly, no separate spring transfer.
