both reference 2113260100 as the correct part unless model with chassis serial number from A334971 or X108180. then part 2113262800

so i am thinking its part 2113260100

I received part# 2113262800 in August and replaced my right rear shock. No problems.

I believe it is suggested by the service manual to use STAR to release the pressure from the air spring when doing this repair. I did not use STAR to release the pressure and the only thing that happened was the spring was able to open much further (and quickly) when the shock was unbolted. A little surprising when you aren't susecting it, but everything returned to normal once the repair is finished and the car is lowered off the jackstands and started.

I had forgotten there were different part numbers based on vin number of the vehicle. My number obivously fit with the numbers associated with the 62800 part.

I guess it would depend on what the VIN of your vehicle is. I have no idea what changed during the build that required different part numbers.
