Hiya folks,
I'm about to embark on a 'new' project to replace the gas strut in my rodkicker. Please refer to attached photo as I'm not clear on what brand/variety of kicker type. The strut is quite large (approx. 2.5m) to support main of 45m2 with boom length around 5m.

I haven't disconnected yet, and before I do am hoping that I might get some tips from the brains trust.

(Please disregard the temporary setup of the boom brake)

cheers rob
