All are Koni numbers:
Front--90-1710SP3
Drive--90C-1868
Tag----90C-1813(these are not a simple bolt up, even though this is the number provided by Newell in my owners manual.  The Koni shock is much larger than the shock that came on my coach. The shock that came on my coach is a Gabriel #89436 HD adjustable which are available in the link below and are much cheaper than the Konis:

From Koni: Hello Mike, shocks for the drive and tag axle are still available, however the front steer shock 90 1710sp3 has been discontinued and was not replaced. The drive axle shock is still the same part number 90 1868, but the tag has been superseded by a newer part number 90 1968-p. These parts can be ordered from a dealer near you called ShockWarehouse at www.shockwarehouse.com, or by calling us directly at 859 586 4100 with the part numbers.

I sent an an email to Newell parts asking for replacement front shocks, no reply yet. Does any have another manufacturer?

Update: found out today, my front shocks are Bilstein(Koni no longer manufactured) drive are Koni, and tag are Gabriel.
We replaced our front and drive axel shocks in June, the KONI part number was 90 1868 RIDEWELL RADD-R -23121147 same shock for both drive and steer axels. We did not replace the tag axel shocks.
Joe,
Does your coach have the solid front axle or IFS?
