I cant help much with p/n's but I know from experience that there were changes to the struts in june 2000.

My s40 is an early 2000 and from what I found when I purchased a set of used low miles struts from an 02 (a euro monroe product oddly) they were physically smaller and did not fit the larger springs on my earlier model year.

Two other interesting things I found are that the rears fit with no problem, and that no one I have contacted can actually ID the monroe pn to match them up to a model and year.

Hope that helps in some way, and if anyone believes my info not to be correct please let me know, and I also have a pair of front struts avail (supposedly with under 5k on them, and they look it too) for a 01 and up s40 really cheap :)
