Product Description 1.Q: Can I use these gas struts on a camper shell?A: Yes, these struts are designed specifically for camper shells and truck toppers.They work well with popular brands like Leer, SnugTop, ARE, and Weatherguard toolbox lids.Customers regularly confirm they are a direct replacement for standard camper shell windows and doors.The 40 lb force rating is ideal for shells weighing between 32–45 lbs.2.Q: How difficult is the installation?A: Installation is very easy and takes about two minutes.You only need a flat-blade screwdriver to remove the old clips, then the new struts snap right into place.Even first-time users find the process straightforward.No special tools or professional help are required.3.Q: Does this product come with mounting hardware?A: No, the package includes only the two gas struts.Mounting hardware is not included because your camper shell or toolbox already has existing mounting studs from the original struts.In some cases, the studs may be hidden in the packaging, so check carefully before ordering replacement parts.4.Q: Will it rust when used outdoors (rain/mud)?A: Yes, they are built for outdoor use.The struts feature a double-layer electrophoretic coating that protects against rust, rain, mud, and salt spray.According to the manufacturer, they showed no rust after six months of testing in extreme temperatures from -40 F to 110 F with high humidity.Customers confirm they hold up well year-round on truck toppers and camper shells.5.Q: Can I use these on a truck bed cover?A: No, these struts are not designed for truck bed covers.They are made specifically for toolbox lids, camper shells, truck topper windows, and caps.Truck bed covers typically require different mounting systems and weight ratings.For a bed cover, you would need struts designed specifically for that application.6.Q: Can it be compressed for storage?A: Yes!The Vepagoo C16-11028 Gas Struts have a compressed length of 7.5 inches, so they do compress for storage or when the lid/window is closed.7.Q: Do I need to maintain these gas struts?A: No, they are maintenance-free.The struts are sealed, so no lubrication is needed.Just check the connectors occasionally and wipe off dirt.If a strut stops holding the lid, replace it — they cannot be recharged.Most customers swap them out in under 5 minutes.
