Re: Cabinet Struts Reply #1 – February 06, 2016, 09:42:16 pm Than FOT?If you search the forum for the struts (aka Attwood Springlift), you'll find somehave tried alternatives and had issues with them being too strong and causing the retention points to pull out of the cabinets. Preferred source is still FOT parts. Quote Selected 3 Likes

Re: Cabinet Struts Reply #7 – February 07, 2016, 11:11:39 am that seems to have been their sale price for the last three years - suspect they buy them in large qty direct from MFG - definitely the best place and price to buy the struts! Quote Selected

Re: Cabinet Struts Reply #9 – February 07, 2016, 11:27:17 am It is my understanding that they bought hundreds a few years ago and established sale price then. We will buy another 8 or 10 next week. Quote Selected
Re: Cabinet Struts Reply #10 – February 07, 2016, 01:02:32 pm Don't know if this helps, but I just picked up 10 of them from MOT at $9.34 each last month.Don Quote Selected
Re: Cabinet Struts Reply #11 – February 08, 2016, 07:04:45 pm Don, hate to post a repeat, but when I read on the Forum that they were $10 at FOT, I recalled a lower price at MOT when I bought before. So I asked at MOT parts sales today and they quoted the same as you got, $9.34, before I had read your post. I did not check to see if the motorcade discount was applied at either or both places, but a difference in price of so little would not be enough to have me driving around checking if I only needed a few. And there may be an online option if one has the time. mike Quote Selected
