Re: [DML] Re: Who has the best door struts?

[Lacy <heylacy@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi I just bought a 6 set of Gradys, and they wont lift door all the way up and you have to help them up. One lifts higher that the other even when switched. I take it that the standard answer from the venders I called is that the tortion bars need adj. . but trading struts with another D owner my doors work fine . All the way up without excessive bounce.I also have alot of side to side  and back in forth play when piston is in open position, my old stocks struts did not have this play.Do you think I should send back for refund and try another set? Thanks for your help, lacy
