Gas Shock - 30 lb Force - 18" Extended, 11.50" Compressed - Black Nitride

The product you sent does not comply with the listed specifications; that is, the extended length is 18.5", not 18", and the compressed length is not 11.5"; rather, the length is 12". Bottom line: when installed my door will not close.1596619

I am sorry that this is not working for you. I have gotten in contact with our dimensions team and they have confirmed that the dimensions are supposed to be measuring center on center of the mounting points, the expanded length is 18 inches and the compressed length is 11.5 inches. If you were to measure this not from center to center, the overall length not from center on center was 19 inches and the compressed was 12.5 inches. We are currently working on getting a diagram of the exact measurements on the website for future customer convenience.

worked for what we needed it for. would have given it 5 except we had to buy adaptors for ends to fit on our four wheeler.1573749

The selection process was easy to follow. I needed gas struts with a greater lift capacity for our under bed storage due to the addition of a memory foam mattress. I was able to select a strut pair with the proper length and extension from the website. The struts were received quickly and were exactly what I needed. The bed now raises gently and remains elevated.1530536

When my package arrived it was beat up and one of the clips on the end of the shock was missing,not what I would give a good report !!1760435

Item was exactly as advertised, easy installation, fits perfectly on our RV door. Our previous gas shock was worn out & would not hold the door open. This product is sturdy & stable. It fixed the issue.1731379

This strut did not fit precisely due to the thickness of the end connectors. They are thicker than the original strut and since the strut has to fit between the bottom of the door and the threshold in the closed position it would not allow the door to close. I found that by exchanging the end connectors with the original strut I was able to install the strut and close the door. The only problem with this solution is that the new strut with the old connectors is slightly longer than the old strut/connector assembly and now allows the door to open slightly farther than before. Our awning arm just barely clears the door when opening and closing so will have to be very careful from now on when extending and retracting the awning. Our motorhome is a Sunseeker 3010ds model in case this is helpful to others ordering this product.1715377

Product is installed but instructions were a bit vague and difficult to implement(related to the removal of previous gas shock bar).1766700

Exactly what I needed for my Kwik Kamp motorcycle trailer! It's nice to share information in our group when we find parts to use for our discontinued campers.1575233

product works well, shipping took a little longer than I expected1575764

Very fast delivery! I've ordered from e-trailer several times and service has always been great!1762442

These work great for toolbox lid 1747436

The head that attached to the bottom door jamb was way to huge couldn't close the door I was able to switch the one from the old strut the thread size not the same I had to force it on most likely will pull off I ordered the 30 pound for my fifth wheel door if people ask the 20 pound model is the correct size but I chose the 30 pound my mistake3138920

Price is right and product fit and functioned well for my application on a Leer truck topper rear glass door1736118
