Front Suspension Air Bags
I need some help.
1999 Holiday Rambler Imperial
Does anyone know the part # for front air bags. I replaced the rear 4 (just old age and cracked) now like to do same to front.
Also, is there a Monaco model that is same.
Thanks

Being cracked isn't really the criteria to judge replacement. If they are leaking air, then replace them. If you remove the old ones, they probably have numbers on them and a truck parts shop can match up exact replacement or equivalent parts by another manufacturer.

I'm not sure when Monaco bought Holiday Rambler and when they were fully integrated into the line up, but I think the Imperial would be similar to a Monaco Signature.

The Imperial was approximately equal to the Windsor up until the Imperial was available with a tag axle. Then it was closer to a Dynasty.
When your coach was built, the HRs and Monaco coaches were still somewhat different even though Monaco was the owner by then.

Good Morning All,
Monaco got back to me. I had already replaced the 4 rear bags and turns out the front 2 are the same part. Monaco #8619, Firestone 9376.
Thank You

Turns out most of that was wrong. Ordered bags, came in, went under obviously wrong. Could not find a number anywhere. Guy suggested I take "selfie stick" get around back side of bags and take pictures. It worked!
The correct numbers are Monaca 8618 or Firestone W01-358-5319. They are installed etc.
Turns out that replacing was a good idea. One of the front 4 was cracked vertically and horizontal. You could see frayed fabric inside. 8 of them was expensive, installation costly but for my peace of mind is well worth it. Most likely they will now outlast me!

The rear (much larger) were $163.00 USD each, the front were $133.00 each. Firestone.
I purchased from Truck Suspension, Bilstein Shocks, Firestone Air Bags, Timbren, Leaf Springs - TruckSpring.com , Michigan Truck Spring, they paid shipping to Colville WA. They were absolutely great to deal with, shipped PDQ, credited return immediately and pleasant to deal with. I have no idea if this is cheapest around, but great service.
