Shocks - Beaver 2006 Monterey 40 ft
« on: March 24, 2012, 06:32:44 PM »
I can only read a partial Bilstein shock number of:  F4-B46-20 . . . . .
 
What is the shock model # for Bilstein and/or Koni replacement?   2 in front - 4 in back?

After market shock dealers ask what the frame model is for this rig.  Can't find that info and Monaco can't help?  What is it?

Thx for the help.

Dave

Dave,
  Your chassis is a Roadmaster M8S - Series. Here is the link to look at original brochure with all specs.   http://www.beavermotorcoaches.com/products/archive.html

Good Luck
Steve

Hi Dave

If you go to the Koni site you will be able to determine the Koni FSD shocks that are recommended for your coach (same model and year as mine.)  You will need to input your chassis type - Roadmaster - and you will get the correct Koni part number.  You will need eight shocks - 4 in front and 4 in the rear.  I have the FSD type on my 03 Monterey and will be installing them on my seasick 06 Monterey.  Can't help with part numbers if you prefer Bilstein's.

I replaced my Bilstein F4-B46-2093-MI with Koni FSD 8805 1004SP1 all around.  Great improvement on front axle.  Not so much on rear.  Another big steering improvement was changing from Goodyears to Michelin.  I went thru three sets of Goodyear steer tires.  No more vibration and softer ride. :)

Hi Again Dave

My '03 Monterey required different shocks for the front and rear.  The Koni site for your '06 Roadmaster chassis shows part# 88051016 for the front and 88051017 for the rear.
