Body Do you have a recommendation for your stock hardtop strut replacement.
The Omix # 12012.08 is a stock replacement. A bit pricey at about $30 each. Advance Auto has some generic replacements, part # D4643. They're about $16 each.
All good. I went through hell trying to find a set. Everything is for the newer stuff with an all glass window not our steel frame and glass setupHey Manic. My bad. Thanks for the catch.
I “refurbed” mine - a bit of paint, and a good dose of WD-40 to the springs. Be forwarned - if you do that, depending on which way you mount them, they may dribble rust infused drool for weeks...... and I sprayed very little .......So as i am cleaning these up and feel that they have a spring internal, any suggestions on if i should soak these in something? Or spray something down the shaft to condition the spring? They sound like the spring door that opens on "The Waltons".
Thanks, I did create a 2 1/4in pic holder and and filled with brake cleaner. Let set for hours on each. Removed and watched rusty fluid come out as I pressed them. Then sanded and painted. Also now dropped some 3in 1 oil. And letting that stay internal.I “refurbed” mine - a bit of paint, and a good dose of WD-40 to the springs.
