It was important to measure them closed and open in order to find the best
The industry standard for these is ISO 9001. As far as I know, all struts have the same ball joint size. As long as they are at the right length and pound rating, they should work just fine.

Within our family we have three fifth wheels, one from 2002, another from 2004, and one from 2016. The guy who fixes them all is me. The door to my mom's room would not stay The item I purchased was an open box from the warehouse for 8 dollars. I really like this. Her gas charge is a little stiff at first, but I believe it's because she got used to the old shock being drained. The shock will eventually fade away, as it does with most things. The door holds up well in high winds in Texas. Despite their different designs, all three camper doors have the same shock. I'd like to add a little comment to Tip. A new shock is needed when replacing this one. With a flat head screw driver or butter knife, remove the old shock from the door. If you notice the screws holding the bracket to the door have come loose, keep reading for an easy way to solve this issue without Grasp the bracket with a 1/4 or 5/16 socket and remove it. Check out how convex the holes are for the screws. The door needs to be closed. You may lightly coax them to flush by tapping them lightly with a small hammer or the like. A flat surface or a slight concavity is preferable. The fluid nails with high adhesion are available at your local drug store. You will remount the bracket on the surface of the LN filled holes. Apply a small bead of LN on that surface. You can reattach the bracket only and tighten the screws slightly more than snug. If the screws spin, tighten them until you have a good Put shock damper on after rinsing off access adhesion and waiting 24 hours for it to fully cure. Putting the damper on requires no tools just pop it on. As soon as possible, connect the chamber cylinder to the.
During a recent squall, my old 20" door support on my Jayco Octane 181SL was ripped off by the wind. While the part number is different, it is just as effective.
The 20 lb spring that came with my Jayco was worn out and so I purchased this replacement spring. Eventually, the original spring broke when it broke as the 20-pound spring almost blew the door off its hinges if you slipped the handle out of your hand by accident. The 10 lb spring comfortably opens the door without rattling it, but has plenty of holding power to keep it in place for a long time.
I had to get this size to lift one end of the RV platform to access the under bed storage space. The second quarter of 20 (40 total) and the second quarter of 40 (80 total) did not meet expectations. A little effort is needed to lift up the end of the bed platform for 60s (120 total). This may be because the force is not completely vertical since it is at an angle so only a vector of the full force can be seen. As it is, I did not want the base or end of the bed to pop up on rugged I just got it.
Using this replacement for a camper's door was a wise choice. A new one that matched the measurements could be used in place of the old one. In addition to working smoothly, the new one looks much better (the old one was rusted and looked awful). You should be aware of one thing if you are re-evaluating your application If you want to change the hardware on your doors If you have other brackets and hardware, you may need to clean them or replace them. Replace any damaged or rusty screws with stainless steel ones, and I recommend doing that whenever possible.
A lightweight RV door might be a bit heavy for such a strong You MUST be prepared to enter due to the opening of the door. In light of that, I may not be able to compare them fairly since the original is 14 years old and may have lost a little 'spring'. We are currently using it with the assumption that it will break in a bit over time, and it definitely holds the door flat, even with.
My favorite feature of the building is how they don't slam the door open when they open it. They open slowly and smoothly instead. This is definitely something I would.
The old arm that held the door open had a tendency to lock in the open position, making it hard to close. I replaced it because it was so hard to release it and I had to reach up and bump it for Located in the center of the door, this gas strut gently opens the door between 2 and 3 inches open. Despite a little resistance from the strut, it is easy to close the door. It is also no longer possible for the wind to open or close the door like it used to! If you are worried about the look of a gas strut on the outside of your beautiful coach, don't be, it sits just under the rain gutter, so it is almost invisible.
