If you are in need of mounting brackets / hardware or ball studs see our selection listed in the store<br>Note:<br>for best results replace both struts (when 2 struts are used) …<br>ALWAYS<br>install with rod down (your struts will last much longer … here’s the reason all struts contain a bit of oil / that is what causes the damping effect towards the end of the stroke … this oil also lubricates the piston, installing the rod down keeps the oil atop the piston!)<br>If you are looking for a replacement, upgrade or thinking of adding a gas spring to anything you would like assisted power in opening - closing or to be held open hands free this may be for you. Gas springs offer a unique alternative to conventional mechanical, coil spring or counterbalancing devices. The spring rate for a gas cylinder is far less than for any type of mechanical spring. The advantages of these springs involve the combination of a relatively flat force curve, versatility of controlled forces, extension speed, damping at the end of the stroke along with a very compact design. Each gas spring contains a specific amount of oil, which lubricates the seal, piston and piston rod, as well as acting as a damping medium. The oil within the cylinder, when it is compressed or extended, moves from one side of the piston head to the other, providing a damping effect.<br>Replacement TIP:<br>There are many brands of gas springs / shocks / struts manufactured today with just about as many names Nitrogen gas, gas, struts, springs, shocks, dampers etc. , some have a part number that is as equally confusing to understand with out a reference guide! If you are looking to add or replace any gas shocks (they all get weak, worn, bent or broken and need to be replaced at some time) it is easier than you think, here are the basics<br>1.<br>Just measure the extended length of your shock (from the center of the socket to the center of the socket) that’s the length (that was easy!)<br>2.<br>If you do not know the force pressure, and it is not listed on the shock (most times it is encoded in the part number on the shock) you can always do a simple test, IE camper topper lid … use a scale to measure the force needed to hold the door open!<br>a.<br>Be sure to take the old struts off!<br>b.<br>PLACE<br>the scale at the point the strut connects to the door / lid (at the bracket)
