Does anyone know where to find bed lift struts with the proper fittings for a '95 Dolphin? Am not sure if they're common to other National products or not. We have the optional king bed, and the lifts look like they'll be easy to replace if we can find the proper pop-in hardware and difficult if we have to replace everything.

You'll need to take a few measurements but it's an easy process. Go to www.mcmaster.com. Search "gas spring"

It would not surprise me if these parts could be found for a fraction of the RV parts price...at an auto parts store.
Just thinking out loud......

I didn't even realize these units had bed lifts. I think I got shorted. In my coach I have to manhandle the bed up and use a closet rod to hold it in place.

It would be real easy to add a set of them if you want.

Don't get under there often enough to spend the money or effort to install them. It just seems odd I did not get them if they were installing them on other coaches.
