2004 hurricane 30q

Just purchased my first motorhome, which is a decent 2004 hurricane 30q on the f53 chassis. With 56k on it, i decided to upgrad the shocks to the koni fsd's. I could only finish 3 out of 4, because the last rear shock has a frozen bolt...the nut came off just the bolt is stuck in the shocks metal sleeve. So I am going to cut it out, but I cannot seem to find the part number for the bolt. Could anyone help me out with this? Not sure if the weight matters, but it is 15,700.
  • Well I can tell you the ford dealer was no help. Called them, gave the specifics, said he had one...but quickly noticed that the bolt was only a fraction of the size that was needed. The parts guy could not help any further. I then went to fastenal and the worker found one in the store in a minute.
  • If possible take the bolt from the other similar shock to an auto parts store or Fastenal to verify grade of the bolt. Grade 5 or 8 have head markings that will tell them which it is. If it is shiny it could be stainless(check with magnet).
