Expert Reply:
I can help you get your awning back in working order but it's going to involved switching out your entire support arms with the Solera Universal kit which comes in Black # LC434727 or White # LC434728 and measures 69" tall (the rail that is installed to the side of your trailer) or the short arm assembly which comes in Black # LC404523 or White # LC97UD (you'll need 2 of these).
As far as the small gas struts go, we do have some replacement gas shocks/struts but the ones we carry are like the part # 372-5300-20 and install on a 10 mm ball socket so none of them will work for your application. If you're just wanting to replace these then I recommend reaching out to Dometic.
