Twist Gull Roof question

[quote='Cowboy','https://slingshotinfo.com/index.php?thread/10927-twist-gull-roof-question/&postID=381245#post381245']

Anybody ever replace the gas lifts for the doors? Did you go back with stock lifts or aftermarket?

Yep, a few of us have. Stocks are Suspa brand w/a 5 yr warranty. However TD will not warranty them beyond 1 yr. I ended up replacing them myself for 1/2 the price TD wanted for just one. I'll see if I can find the info.

Found it.. Stock shock is Suspa C16-24170. I replaced mine w Lift Supports Depot PM1054-PR.

Thanks for this. had one of them crap out on me in less than a year, so it's nice to know I can get better replacement shocks.

Thanks Chavey. I was kind of surprised of how short the lifespan was for these. Especially if there was supposed to be a 5 year warranty! Thanks again for the info.

Yeah, I called Suspa and they confirmed the 5 yr warranty - but only to the original purchaser, ie Twist Dynamics. I also called TD, but they refused to cover it under warranty, saying theirs is only 1 year. They wanted to charge $55/shock even though Suspa sells them for $45/ea. Not the first time I've had problems with TD. I really wish I had not had the dealer put all their stuff on the SS when I bought it.
