Hey all, I wanted to quick drop you all a line and let you know a few
things.
1) Thank you to everyone else in the past who posted info on their door
struts. It was very helpful in me finding not just a suitable
replacement, but an improved replacement.
2) Thank you also for those of you who still watch this list. You as
a community were always a big part of my life, and I'm sorry that I was
absent a lot in the past couple years. I hope to fix that.
3) I just replaced my door lift struts. The info I used was found mostly
right here on this email forum. What I put on was:
Bansbach EasyLift
A1A1F50-100-287/600N
I got them from Easylift, in Melbourne FL.
321-253-1999 / (800) 225-4498
https://store.easylift.com/a1a1f50-100-287-600n
They have a damping effect for the last 10% of travel, if you install
them with the rod down...facing the cabin side.
My others worked fine as far as I thought, for 17 years. But these
with their damping are actually nicer.
I realized I hadn't updated my site since 2021, so today I quick too
pics of the struts and put it on the site here:

Again, thank you all for being there when I needed info.
