Hey guys Does anyone know where I can get a rear door gas strut for a wt hardtop? Looked over wreckers but cant find one in working order. Can they be bought new somewhere? Cheers Mike |

I think getting them new is cheaper in the long run.There are a couple of sellers on Ebay that are good & cheap.I forget which one we used,there is a link on this Forum somewhere,but you just send them the number engraved on your old strut(i don't know the Hardtop type). http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/CANOPY-GAS-S ... 0d2&_uhb=1 |

you have to be careful with the struts, don't just replace with anything, they need to be rated for the weight of the door plus whatever spare tyre you have hanging off it. I had some made for my hardtop as I couldn't find any off the shelf due to the ends that you need and a new, genuine one from the Suzistore was quoted at $120. mine are a bit too strong though and push the door open too quick so you have to hang onto it!! but in saying that, with the 31" Mud tyre mounted on the door, it doesn't move in the wind and stays open on any angle. if you have a company close by such as Universal Engineer Supplies ( http://uesint.com/locations/ ), take your old one in and they can make one up/have one made to suit, mine cost about $25 each ( bought 2, 1 as a spare ). the part number is got supplied from UES is UES600N-460 but like I said, it's a bit too strong. |
