I got mine about a year ago redone, I'll see if I can find the receipt tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note: Measurement was taken from the center of the pin/knuckle that the strut pops onto.With hard lid open - center to center measures 530mm (this will also be the strut length fully extended)With hard lid closed - center to center measures 320mm (this is about 40mm from the strut being fully compressed)Brand name:Part number / numbersAll the other writing on it was just warning messages...contents under pressure, do not open, do not use to bash caunts....bla bla bla. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
