gas struts
I have the original Comet trailer that came with my ASW-20A and the
original gas struts on the trailer. Anyone know where to get replacement struts (the clamshell is sagging now) without having to take out a loan to buy new ones from Germany?

gas struts
Try www.mcmaster.com . They have an excellent range of good quality
gas springs. Their website is easy to navigate and ordering online is painless. Steve Koerner -- GW www.wingrigger.com

Phil:
McMaster is in Atlanta--Cheap and fast. Read the data off the struts the go to the Mcmaster catalogue for the required measurements. Search "gas springs" and read the 6 pages to get educated. Good luck. -- Hartley Falbaum "Phillip LaBerge" wrote in message ... I have the original Comet trailer that came with my ASW-20A and the original gas struts on the trailer.

The following site can supply exact replacements. Be sure and measure the extended and retracted lengths and usually the newtons are on the strut. http://www.easylift.com/products/gas_springs.aspx Richard www.craggyaero.com

Try the Komet Rep...Harold Ennulat (724) 935-5586. I had the same problem about a year ago and he took good care of me.
