Measurement Required! Incl 4 Ball mounts! ## Features - CHECK LENGTHS AND PRESSURE BEFORE ORDERING. THESE DO NOT FIT ALL TOPS! THE MEASUREMENTS ARE FROM CENTER OF BALL MOUNT TO CENTER OF BALL MOUNT, NOT FROM END TO END OF STRUT! SEE PICTURE! Use a measuring tape to measure the door gas strut that you are replacing. Measure from the CENTER of the gas prop head (little plastic end), to the other side. DO NOT measure camper struts from the end of the gas prop, your measurement will be too long. Note that most applications allow for 1-5% size variation. - Truck Upfitters Pair of 30 pound (each) gas struts. 13.0" extended length & 8.1" compressed length. This size of door shock absorber is for tall medium weight rear or side camper windows / camper shell doors. Each canopy shock has 30 lbs of pressure, for a total of 60 lbs of pressure. Please note that this does not mean that it can lift something that is 60 lbs. the typical hinged-style door weight for this prop is approximately 30-50 lbs, including the weight of the camper shell locks and keys. - These gas lift cylinders do not fit all camper shell brands / models. Measure your strut from center of socket to center of socket when fully opened & fully closed to get accurate measurement. Please see pictures to determine how to measure. Do NOT measure from end to end. Measurement must be from the center of plastic ball mount on each end of the gas spring lift. Measurement is important to ensure they open properly and get a good camper shell seal against the camper shell gasket when closed. - Comes with four 10mm ball mounts for alternate 'other than truck camper shell' applications, such as in camper / canopy windoors, RV doors and awnings, boat hatch spring lifts, gas struts for cabinets, storage bed lifts, toolbox struts, etc. These gas shock lift supports CANNOT be compressed by hand. These gas props MUST be installed in the EXTENDED / OPEN position. It is nearly impossible to install them in the CLOSED position. Please refer to the install video for guidance on how to install. - Equivalent to Suspa # c16-04464 or c16-04464A or Stabilus # 0516.

Holds up the glass. Works good. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Exactly what I needed *by D***W on Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2018* I had a camper shell that had rear window lift struts that had both failed. A name and a part number on the struts failed to produce any results when searched on the web. There are thousands of lift struts, with varying lengths, rod ends and lift strengths which can make a search for the correct one very daunting. I stumbled upon this advertisement for "2 Truck Upfitters 13" Gas Props (13" extended, 8.1" compressed, 30 pounds of pressure ea)" and decided to order them. The price was very good for 2 units, even if I had to modify the camper window. To my surprise they were the perfect length, with just the right amount of lift pressure and installed on the existing brackets in about 1 minute without modification. I will have to remember these units, in case they start to fail in the distant future. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars prefect *by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2024* shipped fast and received it on time ## Frequently Bought Together - 2 Truck Upfitters 13" Gas Props (13" Extended, 8.1" Compressed, 30 pounds of Pressure ea) for A.R.E, ATC, Snugtop, Leer Camper Shell/Truck Cap Rear Door.
