Look carefully on the strut. Most have printing on them that can be deciphered into both the stroke and the pressure.

I found that when I typed that number and gas strut into google, I was presented with multiple sources.

So...........when you get them. Look at the ball joint ends. If you remove the metal clip you can slide the end over the existing ball joint. It is not necessary to unbolt the strut. But in either approach to installation, you will find the strut is slightly longer than the stock spacing, and you will be hard pressed (no pun intended) to compress them enough by hand to get them installed.

I know I used a cobbled up strap and cinch winch to compress it enough to install. There has to be a better way.

Anyone?
