[DML] RE: Door Struts

["sgskbm" <SGSKBM@xxxxxxx>]

I have read the posts about which vendor has the best door struts and 
this has been of great interest to me.  I bought a complete set of PJ 
Grady's struts about three years ago and I have maybe 150 miles on 
the car since I installed them.  I probably have a total of 75 
openings on the driver side and maybe 20 on the passenger side.

They are both now bad in that they no longer go up more than 1/2 
way.  I live in San Diego and the car is kept in a garage so 
temperature should not be a factor.

I am not complaining about the quality or the fact that I now need to 
replace them but I too am wondering about which vendor to use.  It 
seems like some vendors give a longer warranty, some are temperature 
compensated and some are highly recommended.

Have PJ's changed in the past couple of years?  If so, that could 
make a difference.  Interestingly enough, the ones on the engine 
compartment and the trunk seem to still work fine.

I thought it might be the torsion bars but to be honest, they worked 
fine when they were new so I don't think this is the problem.  Any 
thoughts?

Thanks,
