Re: Just ordered my Strong Arm Hood Struts

I just installed the NAPA struts, same part number as the How_To but now named Balkamp Turbo Struts. They cost $27.50 each but the conversion was straight forward and they work great. Hardest part was getting the ball out of the SVX struts. My vise is a cheap one so I had the cut it them out with a dremmel. Definately install the bottom bracket before you connect the strut to the ball. Mae that mistake too.
