      Description

      Get Reliable Shock Absorption On- and Off-Road. With Rough Country’s Premium N3 Front Shocks for 3.50 to 4.50-Inch Lift, your slightly lifted Jeep Wrangler JL’s ride quality will be enhanced. These high-quality front shocks boast a high-pressure nitrogen charge and a 10-stage variable valving, offering superior shock absorption you can rely on during your off-road adventures or daily highway drives. Plus, they come in a stunning metallic silver color to complement your Jeep’s aggressive styling.

      Stands Up to the Harshest Road Conditions. Thanks to an 18mm piston rod, 35mm piston, and 54mm shock body, these Premium N3 Front Shocks can dissipate heat faster than other shock models. They also feature 36kN tensile strength, durable rubber bushings, and a spring-loaded piston rod seal, delivering an unmatched road dampening performance no matter the trail or terrain.

      Professional Installation Is Required. Although this product comes complete with all its necessary parts and hardware, it’s in your best interest to let a qualified mechanic install for you. Not only is the task difficult to execute, but it’ll also take an hour or so to complete.

      Comes With a 3-Year Manufacturer’s Warranty. These front shocks are backed by Rough Country’s 3-year manufacturer’s warranty. For more details on the warranty’s’ terms, conditions, and exclusions please visit the manufacturer’s website.

      Awesome

      Great shocks and easy install. I would have like to have seen included lower bolts/nuts because I had to cut mine off. Pro-tip Don't waste your time trying to get off the old corroded hardware. Get your sawzall and a decent metal blade and cut out your old shocks in about 2 minutes.

      good value

      Only issue that I had was that these didn't come with the upper bushings and fastener nuts and I had to use the old hardware. Not a biggie but annoying.
