Lifting legs aren't impressive

I bought these to hold my lid open better than worn ones and they work as long as there's no wind or you're looking downhill. I had to get stronger.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Working speed

Perfect replacement!

They were perfect for replacing the broken rear window stays on my ARE pickup. They have the exact pressure rating to match the originals and they keep the window like new!

Pros
  • Excellent fit for me
Cons
  • Only available in white

This is what I needed

I wasn't sure if the specs met my needs. The racks I replaced were unmarked and nothing standard, but to my delight these racks fit perfectly in my trailer toolbox.

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • -

Gas Struts Empty Capper/Topper Vepagoo

I used spacers on my Leer Topper window. One spacer worked as advertised while the other was very stiff in compression, definitely above the 24lb compression spec for a 12" gas spring. I used one of the old gas struts that still had some compression so the window could be used.

Pros
  • 12 Inch 40 Lb Gas Strut for Pickup Truck Aluminum Tool Box, Weather Shelter Tool Box, ARE Empty Camper Top Side Window and other custom projects like RV Door, Closet Cover, Box Cover.
Cons
  • I'll keep quiet

Not Recommended: Lifting Feet

Edit: After the temperature dropped below 40 degrees these dampers stopped working. I do not recommend. I am revising my rating to 1 star. Worked great, great price. Though they're barely strong enough to hold my thick steel toolbox lid. The listing says they each apply 40 pounds of force - I'm pretty sure this toolbox lid doesn't weigh 80 pounds, but like I said, they barely keep it up. It would be better for a lighter/aluminum tool box.

Pros
  • Gas Spring Tips used in non-standard projects. If your lid or door weighs 20-35 pounds, just install ONE. Lid or door weighs 50-75 pounds, install BOTH. If you are not sure, please contact us before purchasing, we will give you expert advice.
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
