2005 Windsor shocks

I am researching shocks for my Windsor and have read comments from all viewpoints (Monroes-Bilstein-Source Bilstein- Koni).
However, when I check on Bilstein comfort shocks, the ones shown on the chart and online searches are not correct for the 2005 Windsor. I have a stem top end & eye bottom. The chart shows 24-186305, which is an eye on each end.
The shock configuration to fit mine would be like the Diplomat of the same year. Has anyone come up with a correct Bilstein shock for an '05 Windsor? Is it possible the Diplomat shock also fits the Windsor of that year?

Do you know which chassis your coach is built on?

It is the 8 bag, side radiator. That's where the charts get confusing, because I assume the RR8S chassis on mine, but for RR8S, they show an eye/eye mounting. The RR8R chassis has the stud/eye mounting. Mine has the stud/eye mounting. I guess I'm assuming the "S" means side radiator, not so!

The Bilstien Comfort Series numbers listed in this thread are what fit your RR8S. You need 4 of each.

I think you are correct, it is the 24-186605, rather than 24-186305 ( which is shown for the Windsor)!
