Got a couple from Ontario, here in the park, with a Class A motor home, Ford chassis, (Pursuit by Georgie Boy), with a bad rear shock. A Bilstein with a leak. Looks pretty puny to me, for a rig that big.
The shock is printed with -- 3C34 18080 BA Gas Pressured
I looked up Bilstein shocks on the internet, and for a Class A Ford chassis, they listed BE5 - E632 - HD In that listing, they specified, for a Ford, 98-27F53 Cl "A" MH Chassis (V10), which, as near as I can tell, describes his unit.
So, the question(s):
Are these two numbers compatible?
If not, which number is correct?
Does a Bilstein used on a motor home carry the life-time warranty?
Since he can't get any help from the local auto/truck parts outlets, what are your recommendations for getting the right shocks onto his MH?
Thanks,
Dick
