I'm going to try ordering some gas springs for the pod, propane and onan doors from McMaster-Carr, last time I tried they said they would not ship to canada, now the website says they do.
The force recommended for the propane and onan doors on bdub's site says 40 pounds. Is the the recommended force if you are using only one strut per door? I want to use two struts per door and I'm thinking 80 pounds of force is way too much... or am I wrong?
I also see there are several different mounting hardware part numbers. Has there been a consencious on the best way?
