That's a very early date code for a Jekyll. First model year for them was 2001. The 2001 US catalog shows the Jekyll 2000 with similar black/orange/yellow fade and the component spec looks similar.

I'm not sure of the correct term for the parts you need: axles or shock pivots, or ?. I would check with Craig at Mendoncyclesmith.com.

And the serial number

The first part looks like a standard socket head cap screw but it probably has some associated bushings. I've never owned a full suspension Cannondale so am not much help here.

KK = November, 1999. Perhaps a pre-production frame built up for someone to test??

That's a 2000 model. here it is in the 2000 catalog that's not on this website:

The bushing kit for the trunion (front pivot) is Cannondale part #KF013. It's obsolete of course, but sometimes new old stock shows up on EBay. The rear bushing is part of the Fox shock and not a Cannondale part. I find it hard to believe its worn though, maybe the bolt is just loose? Spec is 106 in-lbs (12 Nm).
