    Crown Canopy Struts

    Wasn't sure where to put this but both my canopy struts have shit themselves.
    Oil etc leaking out of them.


    Anyone know where I can get new ones?
    I tried researching online but this place is way better than Google when looking for abstract info😆

    They ll need extended length. Weight or force reqd. Shaft diameter and what the ends are ie: you may need to send them a pic.

    I usually pay $78 to 90 each. So if the factory ones are more it may be a good thing.
    I think Repco use these guys. They may know the data by make and model if its a common one that fails.
    Worth a crack as its 0800 ha ha

    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.
