Gas Strut for Kill Tank
Submitted by The Saint on Fri, 2016-12-02 12:46
I want to fit a gas strut to the lid of the kill tank.
Can anyone tell me who supplies marine grade gas struts around Perth, or even an online seller ?
Cheers

wanted some for the prado bonnet. Toyota wanted $600 for 2. Got the same struts from ebay for $23 delivered to my door. Just measure the size you want and should be easy to find.

If I wanted your input I'd be asking about the best way to line up pieces of clay on sand.

I have had to replace the ice box struts on my Boston. I go to https://www.strutspecialists.com.au/contact. They are located in Osborne park, marine grade, and have worked well. Price was very reasonable from recollection.
