Thank you, Maurice! Lots of great info! So am I reading correctly that you currently have just the struts hooked up? And not the torsion bars to assist in lifting?
Yes, that's right. Fully working on struts alone. Doesn't pop up from unlock but holds tight at every point along the way and self-raises from the higher position. I kind of like that.
I should say: I haven't installed the torsion bars and actually verified that the whole thing works together with strut rods and torsion bars together - just that there is clearance in the open position that should work as long as the torsion spring doesn't travel any further up the hinge.
