    Engine cover strut broken

    Just broke one of the engine cover struts on my 04 22i and thought I'd replace both. Hit Napa but they needed to know the weight rating which I didn't know and couldn't decipher any information on the strut itself. Anyone know the weight or replacement part #

    Most of these gas shocks have a part number printed right on them. Google that and you'll get its specs, or probably NAPA can cross reference it. For your marine application it's a good idea to get the stainless version unless you want to be replacing it again.

      Try and avoid getting the wrong weight rating as best as possible got mine a little too strong and the hatches will pop open if not buckled down under the right conditions very annoying. Recommend ordering in a couple different weights and trying them out if can't find the rating otherwise.

        I think my 24Ve were 60# rated. I bought them off Ebay for a song.

          Looked at my good strut in the boat and found enough of the specs to order a new set on ebay for $30. 18 1/2" extended 11.25 compressed and 90lb rating
