While test fitting the new wings this weekend, I found that one of the forward lift struts is rusted through at the attach fitting at the airframe. What are the best options for replacing the strut(s). I have not closely inspected the others yet but I'd be more comfortable knowing what condition all my struts are in. who makes them or how can they be made. Need your help.

Lift Struts
I just ordered one from univair. $400 + shipping for the front lift strut.
Ask for Jason or the salesman in your area.

Hope this helps...

Thanks but that number is for the 11AC chief (post-war)
I don't think they are the same strut but I'll try and verify it, thanks for the info. Still looking, Ron
