Hi - I bought this kit a while ago (6 years?) and now the front shocks are dead. It was designed for a fiberglass hood, so they are pretty lightweight. I tried the FLAPS but the ones that *looked* the same were way too strong.

Anyone know who made this kit and/or what the replacement shock is?

-Steve

(I've removed the shock on the right, see shock (now with vice grips!) on the left...)
