    If you still have the originals, send them for recharging/rebuilding to LS Technologies.

    Just received mine back, for the Boxer, and everything seems good so far. Talk to Nolan to see if they have the pressure specs for the 400 hood; if not, he may be able to cross-reference with the Stabilant units to get it, and you'll still have the "Ferrari"-branded units to use.

    Happened to be browsing the 400i section and saw this thread. There are some recent posts on the 3x8 forum regarding recharging / rebuilding struts that might be of interest: http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/308-328/442455-hood-strut-repair.html Appears there might be a couple shops to consider. I recently used Strut Wise. Jon
