Hydraulic struts for an Avionic trailer
The clamshell hydraulic struts on my Avionic trailer are beginning to lose strength and need replacing. Anyone know of an appropriate source?
Thanks! Dan Thirkill

Dan Thirkill Contact Gemini Gas Springs https://www.geminigassprings.com/ Give them the specifics (length, force, diameter, etc.) and they can custom make a replacement. We had them make up four 1500N gas springs for one of our K21 trailers for a very reasonable price. Fabrication was prompt and deliver to us (from western Canada to Georgia) was uneventful. We installed them this weekend and it was a perfect fit. Mitch Deutsch Mid-Georgia Soaring Association

Hydraulic struts for an Avionic trailer
I have struts which are almost new. When I bought my Avionic AVG-15 4 years ago the original struts (1100 N) turned out to be a little too light, because my outer wings are attached to the clamshell. So after a few weeks I changed them for 1200 N variants. My original ones are for sale, but I live in Europe........
The brand name of the struts is AL-KO. I bought them at a local trailer shop. I do not know if this brand is available in the US.
