Side locker strut part numbers

[Hydrocell]

Has anyone got a part number for the gas struts for the side lockers on a Rapido 9048df please?

The strut should have the part number and the tension settings on it. If you contact SGS they will be able to supply a strut much cheaper than Rapido.

Normally very faint and often can't see until you take it off and get it in good light.

Hydrocell, if you do manage to identify the strut details, shop around on the Internet for replacements before going ahead with a purchase.
The two big struts for our huge heavy garage door became weak. SGS had two goes at replacing with the correct ones......but failed, as they were worse than the originals.

Using the OE part number, and dimesions/pressure etc, I searched the Internet and sourced mine from an Agriculture Equipment Supplier. They are the exact same struts as those fitted to the rear opening window of a Ford tractor.

I also replaced the struts from the side locker, and all four cost me less than one strut from Niesmann+Bischoff, and less than those from SGS, who refunded me in full.

Cheers,

Jock.
