I purchased mine from : Gas Spring, Replacement Per Pair, Maxum Hardware

I also purchased the lower pound rating if I couldn't locate the correct one, but in retrospect I should have ordered the higher pound because the lower ones would not hold door open too well. So I'd purchase the 80# knowing what I know now. Just my opinion.

Shipping is shipping weather from Foretravel or someone else. Shipping is high everywhere except amazon prime. To be sure you get the correct ones and to support Foretravel they would be your best bet.

If you put a pillow top mattress on your bed, the stock pair of gas struts won't lift the bed either.
