Import Tips
• Label with exact tractor model and 'suspension part' to distinguish from passenger vehicle shocks under 8708.80.20
• Provide hydraulic fluid specs and pressure test certificates to confirm compliance with DOT/tractor standards
• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as 'universal' shocks, which could shift to 8708.80.65 for other vehicles
