Hardtop gas struts

Postby xcfalcon351 » Fri Mar 07, 2014 10:40 am

Gday all

New on here and looking for a bit of information.
I have a 92 MU Hardtop that is missing the gas struts to hold up the rear deck.
Just wondering if anyone has any info on what size and capacity these should be as I would very much like to replace them.

Hope someone can help

Not sure what you mean by Hardtop. Assuming you mean a wagon ?

Possibly terminology confusion...
I have the Pickup version with the hard deck lid.
For anyone that is interested I've picked up a set off ebay that fit.
410mm overall length 400Nm ~ $25/pr

Thanks for the replies
