TG Hatch Lifts
 
Has anyone had one of these gas spring lifts last more than a year :mad:

Mine lasted until last year. 2002 boat
Good thing i was in Miami so just walked over to Phil's and got a new set.

one set of mine lasted a month. needing to replace again. maybe i need to open hatches more & let the nitrogen move around. :p

i think they make them in stainless ! if you use the steel ones you better make sure your drain hole is always clear.

phil will ship them to you, they are 25-30 bucks each plus shipping, had mine in less than a week. i use him for all my parts that are cig specific and arent local. best customer service out there, and I dont even own a lipship boat...

Why would you buy another one if they only last a year?

Trash that junk and put in some hyrdaulic ones.

checlk out McMaster Carr. Look under Gas Springs.

Phil, what's the problem with them? They aren't holding the hatches up anymore or they're corroding?

I replaced mine with some I got from Lip-Ship a couple years ago. They've worked perfect for the past two seasons. The ones I replaced were the originals. The port side still held the starboard side was very weak.
