Premium N3 Individual Sh ock Absorber

The Rough Country Premium N3 Individual Shock Absorber (Part No. 20220) is a monotube design shock engineered for vehicles requiring precision damping and extended suspension travel. This single unit delivers consistent performance across compression and extension cycles, making it essential for lifted trucks and off-road platforms where shock replacement is critical to maintaining ride quality and vehicle control.

Built with a 2.12-inch outer diameter steel body and silver powder-coat finish, this N3.0 Series shock compresses to 16.61 inches and extends to 28.03 inches, providing substantial travel range for suspension articulation. The monotube construction allows larger internal piston area and higher gas charge pressure compared to twin-tube designs, resulting in improved heat dissipation and reduced fade during sustained off-road use. The steel construction with corrosion-resistant powder coating ensures longevity in harsh terrain and varying weather conditions. Weighing 6.55 lbs, the shock integrates seamlessly into suspension systems designed for the N3 platform.

This shock absorber is intended for buyers upgrading or replacing worn suspension components on lifted trucks used for off-road recovery, trail driving, and high-clearance applications. Rough Country's N3 line addresses the demand for independent shock replacement where OEM parts have reached service limits or where suspension geometry has been altered by lift systems. Single-unit sales allow selective replacement of dampers experiencing wear while maintaining system coherence.

When sourcing aftermarket shocks, verify fitment by cross-referencing the part number with your specific vehicle platform and lift height. The N3 series occupies a distinct segment between basic twin-tube replacements and fully adjustable remote-reservoir systems, offering practical damping performance at a direct replacement price point.
