Hatch Cylinder size? 1997 382
 

My wife is fussing about the scratches on my hatch lift cylinder that have been there since we bought it. Does anyone know the length and width of it and where is the best place to buy a cover sleeve ? I would measure it myself but its parked at the lake house on the trailer and its 45 mins away.
Thanks in advance! heres a pic

have the same 1 in my boat . i hit it with a pressure washer and all the paint comes right off . simply use some mothers alum polish and it looks like chrome . i always wanted the cover for it but nobody makes it for that size ram

Great to know! Thanks Fastek I will give that a try

They are very easy to take apart and repaint. (Even I managed to do it...)

Looks great, If I cant polish it I may just paint it back black.
Does your hatch pin raise cain when you open it? mine rattles so bad it sounds like the darn things gonna explode!

yep mine was always noisy . i bought 1 on ebay from a baja dealer it was longer than i needed but i cut the ram down it was identical to the formula 1 . i polished that 1 too its simple to do goog luck
