gas springs for lifting bed platform up?

[encantotom]

hi, have any of you installed gas springs to help lift up the queen bed platform on your coach? i have the mattress off right now as we are shopping for a new one and it came to me that it should not be that hard to put gas springs on to assist in lifting of the mattress and platform.

doesnt seem like there is much action on this forum any more. i follow the bluebird forum on yahoo and they go like crazy there. lots of good tips there as well.

thanks

tom
