When replacing gas shock on your vehicle or RV, you will want to make sure you are buying a replacement with the exact same extended length, compressed length, and pounds of force. This information is usually printed on the shock. Lengths are measured from the center of the ball joint used for mounting. If you are planning on installing gas shocks on something for the first time, identifying the shock you need requires fairly complex initial calculations, so be sure to do your research to avoid purchasing a shock that will not fit your application.

Video Transcript for Review of JR Products RV Doors - 372-5300-10
Jeff: Hello everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today. We're taking a look at this JR Products, 20 inch long gas shock. Now this is a quick and easy replacement for any worn or broken gas shock you may have. This will replace a gas shock on multiple applications like your RV or trailer doors, storage compartment doors, truck, bed covers, or fold down camper beds.It is designed with the nice high quality black nitride shaft includes the plastic ends with the locking clips to secure it to the mounting ball and the connection type one.
This is a 10 millimeter ball socket. It does easily install in minutes. There's no special tools required. Basically what I want to do is zoom in a little bit here, just so we can show you detail. Here's the ends of it.
And basically what you end up doing to get your old one off, you'll just slide a small flat tip screwdriver under the clip, pry that clip up and it'll release the pressure and you can pull it off the ball. And then when you go to install this one, just go ahead and pry that clip up. You don't have to pop the clip off, just pry it up enough to release the pressure in there, and then put that onto the ball, push your clip down and it'll attach just like that. And you'll do the same on the other end, just like that. Very simple installation.Now, when you do install this, they do want the inner rod facing down and then they also recommend to replace these gas shocks in pairs.
Now the extended length on this, it's extended like it is now from the center of the small socket to the center of this one is going to be right at 20 inches. That compressed length, if you would compress it, it would be 11.41 inches. And the output force on this gas shock is 10 pounds. But that should do it for the review on this Jr Products, 20 inch long gas shock.

it was the perfect fit and the pressure was great so it does not throw open the door too fast.

Review from a similar JR Gas Shocks in RV Door Parts
Great fast delivery and your description and how to videos are the best for the DIY people. The 30 lb gas shock was for a replacement on my RV entry door. It had a 20 lb force shock but when the door was open and if the wind was blowing hard it would blow the door half way shut and then the door would slam back open which then would pull hard on the mount bracket and eventually it would pull the rivets out that was holding it on.

The shocks and new hinges I’d ordered earlier were the answer to getting my 1999 Yakima Rocket Box back into service. The hinges were an exact fit.

Review from a similar JR Gas Shocks in RV Door Parts
I was extremely happy with my experience with eTrailer, especially the customer service. I had to return my first order because of my own mistake and while it did take a while to get someone on the phone, they were extremely helpful. Both orders arrived sooner than expected. The gas springs were for a engine hatch on a boat. It took like 5 minutes to install them and they are working like a charm. If you have a heavier hatch you might consider stiffer springs than the 20 lb ones. I would definitely order from this company again.

The strut was packaged well and fit right on. The assist worked well as it's lifting a large steel hood on a piece of airport equipment. I can't give it a 5 star as we'll have to see how long it lasts, but I'm happy with the purchase thus far.

- Recommended RV Entry Door Gas Strut For A Thor Class C MotorhomeA typical RV entry door gas strut ranges from 10-20lbs in pressure. We carry both a 10lbs # 372-5300-10 and 20lbs # 372-5300-20 that you can use. Really it just comes down to preference and the climate. If you're in a windy climate going heavier will help prevent the door from flying open/closed in the wind.
view full answer... - Recommended Replacement Struts for Storage CompartmentsUnless the force is specifically listed on your current strut, it is unlikely that you will be able to find the exact pressure. There is no standard for the numbers printed on them. For storage compartments, I would recommend a strut with 10-20 lbs of force like the Gas Shock - 10 lb Force - 20" Extended, 11.41" Compressed - Black Nitride # 372-5300-10 or Gas Shock - 20 lb Force # 372-5300-20. You will want to measure the length in order to find the right size. I have attached two different...
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Add Gas Strut to RV Entry DoorFor an RV door you'd need a strut like the part # 372-5300-10 which has a 10 lb strength and then to mount it you'd need the mounting bracket kit part # 372BR-1020 for a flat bracket or the part # 372BR-1015 for a set with angled mounts. We don't have an install video for this for you to check out at this time.
