    Subject: Re: Strutting my stufff - or doors
    From: Patrick Pulis <rv10free2fly@yahoo.com.au>
    Les and fellow builders, especially the Australian ones! My upholsterer put me onto a local supplier of gas struts (strutspecialists.com.au) based out of Perth in Western. Australia (Tel: +61 8 9445 9119) of all places and I was able to source two identical gas struts to the ones Vans supplies, but these ones are rated at 700N, for a very kind price of AU$38.00 for the pair (equates to about US$28.00). For those enquiring minds, my doors are upholstered and a tad heavier than the norm, thus the 700N. I hope that this helps guys Warm regards Patrick > On 24 Oct 2016, at 08:06, kearney <kearney@shaw.ca> wrote: > > > Hi > > I have been reading past threads regarding higher strength door struts.

    According to my propeller shop the makers of the PCU5000 prop governors just issued a service letter for replacement of their balance weight assemblies exactly the same as MT.

    While on a tour of the MT facility in Deland FL., I mentioned the prop gov problem. Office Manager Sarah said just call when you have questions. They also take care of the mod in their shop.
