So, My front lid and rear cover gas struts are getting weak, and thinking I should replace them. The ones on the car say "Ferrari" on them, and I know they have been replaced before. So my question is, do I go back to the original OEM, aftermarket or get these recharged. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks
The ones you buy from Ferrari dont say Ferrari on them any more! Sent from my SM-A505FN using Tapatalk
Bob: Go to www.liftsupportsdepot.com and look at their various options for your 3x8 (Stabilus brand is the best choice, in my opinion). And don’t worry whether there’s a little horsey on the strut...nobody gives a hoot. Finally, be very careful undoing the bolts holding the front struts on...they are seemingly made of paper mache’ and snap if you look at them funny (ask me how I know this). Replacements made with proper steel are available from Ricambi (part #40161930). Good luck, Alan N.J.
I had mine refilled. A year later they still work. I'm in the UK so can't recommend anyone in the USA.
