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 - 372-2300-120
Today, we're going to take a look at the JR Products 20-inch long gas shock. Now, this gas shock will replace a worn or damaged shock on your RV entry door or storage doors. The extended length on this, and that's measured from the center of the socket to the center of this ball socket. So, if we put a tape measure on that, it's 20 inch for the extended length. The compressed length, if you compress this, is 11.41 inches. Output force on this shock is 120 pounds.
The connection type is a retaining clip on a 10-millimeter ball socket, and I am going to zoom in just to show you how this installs basically.But if you look really close, there's your ball socket, and on top of it, you'll see this retaining clip. So, if you just slide a flat tip screwdriver underneath that retaining clip, pry it up, and that'll release the pressure on that ball socket. Push that onto your 10-millimeter ball and then push the retaining clip back down on top of it and that'll secure it into place. So, very simple installation. It does have a nice black nitride finish to it, but that should do it for the review on the JR Products 20-inch long gas shock..

The selection process was easy to follow. I needed gas struts with a greater lift capacity for our under bed storage due to the addition of a memory foam mattress. I was able to select a strut pair with the proper length and extension from the website. The struts were received quickly and were exactly what I needed. The bed now raises gently and remains elevated.

Review from a similar JR Gas Shocks in RV Door Parts
Overall, I was satisfied with the process as well as as quality and condition of the door opener. I was fortunate that the opener fit correctly. There was some dissatisfaction that your web site offered little in the way of cross-reference data for a direct replacement with the existing opener on my trailer. Also, considering that the item was in stock, delivery took longer than I had anticipated.
Comments
The opener is working great! The only drawback may be that the force factor may be a little on the strong side. A great product though, and I would recommend it.

Review from a similar JR Gas Shocks in RV Door Parts
It didn't fit the camper door swivel pin properly. Head of hinge too big so door wouldn't shut. Went back to Lakota Horse trailer and ordered the part. I don't believe you had stock that would have worked. Thanks for asking.

Review from a similar JR Gas Shocks in RV Door Parts
Didn't work, until I realized the post couplings would screw off the OEM and screw on this new unit. Door wouldn't shut until I changed out this hardware. Now it is perfect! The couplings that come with the unit were too large for my door. All good now, perfect fit. 2020 Thor Citation 24ST.

Review from a similar JR Gas Shocks in RV Door Parts
This fit my 05 Bigfoot 9.6 camper door with about 3/8 compression left. This is the shock you want. It has a slow open feature and does not slam the door open possibly risking tearing the mounts off. So no worries about people who just open the door and head out. We used to have to coax the door open. Not you can let go of it. Love this shock!!

Review from a similar JR Gas Shocks in RV Door Parts
The product you sent does not comply with the listed specifications; that is, the extended length is 18.5", not 18", and the compressed length is not 11.5"; rather, the length is 12". Bottom line: when installed my door will not close.
Comments
I am sorry that this is not working for you. I have gotten in contact with our dimensions team and they have confirmed that the dimensions are supposed to be measuring center on center of the mounting points, the expanded length is 18 inches and the compressed length is 11.5 inches. If you were to measure this not from center to center, the overall length not from center on center was 19 inches and the compressed was 12.5 inches. We are currently working on getting a diagram of the exact measurements on the website for future customer convenience.

- Determining How Much Lift to Get From JR Gas ShocksYou can set a scale under the ramp to get an idea how much lift support you'd want from the shock setup if this is a ramp style door that folds down. We have these shocks from 150 lbs like the # 372-2300-120 all the way down to 20 lbs. I attached a link to a page that has all of the options we carry. If this is a different configuration of a door like one that opens to the side you'd need to check with the trailer manufacturer to determine what you'd need.
view full answer... - 20 Inch RV Gas Shocks With at Least 100 lbs of ForceSince you mentioned 80 lb shocks being inadequate, I'll go ahead and give you gas shocks with at least 100 lbs of force that are 20 inches long. I don't have any way of knowing what mounting hardware you have, but I can tell you each of these shocks attach to 10mm ball sockets. - 150 lb Force: Gas Shock # 372-2300-150 - 120 lb Force: Gas Shock # 372-2300-120 - 110 lb Force: Gas Shock # 372-7903
view full answer... - How to Determine Correct Gas Shock for Trailer DoorWe have gas shocks for trailer doors, and I can tell you how to determine the correct one for your trailer, but wouldn't have any way of knowing the exact one you need. To determine the correct one though, all you have to do is measure you shock's retracted and extended length to ensure the correct one. For example, the Gas Shock # 372-2300-120 has a compressed length of 11.41" and an extended length of 20" with a strong 120 lbs of force. The Gas Shock # 372-7145, on the other hand, has...
