Looks like they start at $189 each now.:eekdance:  
You can buy a whole set of 4 from me for $200.🙂  
This is an example of the money that can be made in after market items.  
I will be putting a set of these on ebay to see what I can get.  
Maybe I will start the bidding at $200.:gotme:

Edit:What kind of psi do you want?

I will have to check Monday.  
Have you had problems breaking the piston rods?  
There really shouldn’t be much sideload in this application.:gotme:

i might be interested in lifting my tonneau cover with smaller ones that would require less pressure. I can get measurements on the struts on it and go from there.
