Konis for an Aspire?

I have an appointment with Spartan to check the excessive play in my steering (2015 Aspire). I asked for a quote on installing Koni shocks ( thanks to recommendations from Chuck/brobox) and got a reply that “Spartan did not have a Koni shock for a solid front axle coach”.

Is this something that needs to be bought and installed at some place other than Spartan? Any recommendations?

Many have installed Koni's on Aspires. Call this company for the correct part number. https://www.ultrarvproducts.com/Koni...eyco-IFS-Front

At the end of the Koni shock post was the part number others had installed on their Aspires.

This post might help http://www.irv2.com/forums/f278/2015...ml#post4042546

Bring your own and Spartan will charge a very nominal fee to install, IIRC it was $125-150 for the pair..

..done!

Hey John, I bought my Koni's from the Ultra RV Link posted below, and Pat installed them for me in Denton.
