Hi Guys Im looking for a set of trunk struts that are 350 to 400 Newtons. The stock 300 Newton struts are not strong enough for this trunk. I need my trunk to huvor open from shut. the length of the struts full open eyelet to eyelet is 10'' & 300 to 400 Newton.

Thanks 60481

How old is your car? You’d be surprised how quickly they wear and the standard rating may actually be ok.

Either way try SGS https://www.sgs-engineering.com/gas-struts#



Thanks for the link.

The Maserati Granturismo is a 2011 4.7 sport.

I could imagine the stress those struts go through with such a heave trunk. That's why I want to ramp up the opening power a bit so I know when it's open...I would not get into the 3'' of water in my battery compartment due to me not knowing the trunk was not locked/sealed shut.
