There are shocks on there now, so there will probably be a cross reference number.
Call Spartan with the VIN # and see what part number they have that were installed. Bilsteins have a part number stamped at the top, you can check with Bilstein to be sure.
Here is a link to finding the part number location

Might have to remove a shock to get the number.

The odd thing was that I called Spartan. They have me a part number for what shocks should be installed. When I read the stamped numbers off to Ultra, they told me it wasn’t the ones Spartan said was installed...?? I don’t know which to use to cross reference. The ones installed now, Ultra said are the ones for the Ibeam and suggested I measure up and down to see if the 99’s he has (for the ibeam) would work.

I guess the only way to make sure is to remove a shock and check what part number is stamped on it. A little more work, but easier than selling the MH

If the shocks are working properly, then they are the right ones.

I changed the shocks myself and kept the old shocks for one trip to make sure I had the correct shocks and I like the way they rode. As soon as we got home, I threw the Bilsteins away.
