Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at this RV Designer gas strut. So this is kinda like a support arm that you typically see holding things up like your RV doors, truck caps, or storage compartments. Its main job is to make opening and closing smoother, safer, and a whole lot easier. This is built to last with the durable black finish. And lining this up here again, let me get my tape measured here.
Measuring center of socket to center of socket, we're sitting right at 17 inches on the length. This is gonna give you about 90 pounds of lifting force, so that's gonna help take some of the weight off when you are lifting something like a cargo door or bed platform. Instead of it slamming shut, the strut's gonna control the movement so it's gonna open easily and close in a more controlled way. And it's pretty versatile as well. You're gonna be able to use this on your RV beds, entry doors, truck caps, or really any compartment that needs a little lift assistance.
If you notice, this is going to be a ball and socket installation. This is just gonna be for the gas strut, so no hardware. I think that's gonna wrap up our quick look today. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.

Exactly what i ordered
They seem to do as advertised. Just put them on, we'll see how they last.
The product worked great. Easy installa tion.
This worked perfectly. Took a little work to install, but it solved my problem lifting the queen bed in my Forest River Wolf Pup 16BHS camper trailer.
Replacement struts for 10 year old struts,quality products!Thanks E Trailer!
Easy to use search for the right product and ordering is a breeze.
Shipping is fast.
We replaced the gas struts on the rv king size bed that came with our 5th wheel with these because after we upgraded the mattress the original ones couldn't support the weight. These are working much better and support the weight of the bed when lifted up with no problemo. They were very easy to swap out from the original ones also.
Snapped right into place on the door of our LTV Unity RV. The perfect replacement. Thanks for your guidance and fast delivery.
Perfect fit luxe just as good or better than original equipment. I forgot how the doors closed with such forcewhen the original struts were new. Much more positive feel now no more gust of wind slamming my doors closed. Thank you E Trailer.
David did a fantastic job making sure that I ordered the correct part for my entry door. I received the strut in two days and it took just seconds to replace the broken strut. The new one fits perfectly and all is well. Thanks to David and etrailer I'm a happy camper once again!
