As most have done, bit of modification helps.

Re: Gas struts at LP tank door Reply #27 – June 18, 2020, 01:37:14 pm I am enclosing a few pictures to wrap this up. One shows the rig I used to compress the 100# gas struts about 1 1/2" in order to install them. It took a few attempts, but they are in.The other photos show modification necessary to install new latches. I bought mine on ebay. Bought the wire rope and ferrules at Lowes. Originals used center holes. New ones came riveted in center holes. I drilled them out, and used 3/16" rivets in corners. I pounded the rivets flat and filed as needed. I made up a spare set "just in case". Wasn't too difficult. Done!!Couldn't have done it without Roger's input. Thanks!! Quote Selected 2 Likes
