Looking for a model number or place I can buy the HD struts for the door. Any help would be great.
OK, the part numbers for Bansbach replacement struts are:
A1A1F50-100-287/600N. That gets you an OEM replacement.
If you want a stronger lift strut then buy: A1A1F50-100-287/700N
These are available from Bansbach in Florida. They will mail you a PO that you have to fill out, but I worked with a rep on the phone and she guided me through it. 231.253.1999.
In Dec of 21 I bought 2 of the 600N struts and paid $110.96 for the struts alone ($55.48 ea)

Vlad,
Before you blow $110 on new struts, you can get exactly what you need from McMaster Carr for about $20 each. All you need to know is the measurement of your old strut. You can also select different opening pressures.
Just bought a set for my Javron, $18 each, good quality made in USA stuff.
Now I just let the door go up on its own. Note, for the internal end-damper to work, the struts must be attached in a specific orientation, one specific end (I forget which) must be high when fully up.
Do you have a reference for this? Looking at the plans (page 45-16) it sure looks like it's installed opposite to what you're describing.When the door is open, you want the fat end of the lift strut up. It appears to be upside down but that is the correct way to orient them.

Hi Jeff, see this Video, but I got the info by reading the instructions.

This was very helpful info.To order the struts easily, go to store.easylift.com and search for B0N0F50-100-247, select the item and specify 2 and select either 600N or 700N in the pull down. Add to cart. Then search for A1 M8 (Aluminum Hinge Eye Fitting) and add 2 per strut (4 total). Web store orders have free shipping.
Can you publish what you model you buy and if it has worked? Thank you.Thank you Jake.
I will check if McMaster have 700N opening pressure for my size of struts. I do not mind testing theirs first, especially if the price is right. Important here is to get the quality I want
