Eddie Powell | While at Louisville last Sun. Stephen Fenner from LS Technologies was looking at my weekender and noticed the difficulty we weekender owners have in closing the top. He took some measurments ,called his company and had a shock delivered to Louisville Tues. morning. Now when I unhook the latches the top slowly opens and closes with ease with one finger. WOW what a difference!!! No more "jiggling " the lid to close.See Stephen's ad in the Vendors section on the main page. Thanks Stephen.

Eddie Powell | Email Stephen at steve@lstechnologies.ca and tell him you need a strut assy . for a weekender. |
MDProwler | Eddie, Does the lid open farther then before? Any Pics of it open? |
Eddie Powell | It opens two inches wider. I dont have any pics. Will try and take some tomorrow. |
katmat | Any idea of the cost for the strut? thanks, Matt |
Mike Krehel | Steve is one of the POA's newest vendors. Please click on his banner ad "LS Technologies" on the home page for more info! |
Eddie Powell | Here is a pic of the prototype. The top of the shock will be moved to the left side of the mounting bracket so the shock will be straight.

GenoTex | Geno, For the Weekender: We now have a Single Black Lift Support and two mounting brackets available as a replacement for the slider. This Lift Support will take the place of the Slider with just removing and replacing the 4 attaching bolts from the slider. We installed the first one at Louisville on a weekender for Eddie Powell. Do you want to start a Group purchase for this unit at the same price as we sold them to Eddie for? $50.00 for the kit, plus Shipping is the price. ------------------ anyone interested, email Stephen at the above address.

Leo | I am interested in buying one. I sent Steve email, but I wanted to the group to know if there was to be a group purchase. ------------------

MDProwler | I like that versus the slider but I am wanting something that will open the lid 90 degrees. Is it possible to use a longer strut and have the lower mount near the front of the box? |
Neal & Mary Ann Bardens | A great vendor. It was nice to have him at Louisville. I went over board buying his stuff though. Neal------------------

Stephen Fenner | Dear POA Members, On returning from the Louisville Event, I was able to develop a Lift Support Kit for the replacement of the slider arm that some of you have mentioned is a pain to open and close. I do have this Lift Support (Gas Spring) kit ready for immediate delivery. It will consist of 2 brackets and the Lift Support for easy install and simple operation to open and close now. I can also make this Lift Support available in a Stainless Steel version if requested. I look forward to working with you all on this part of your Prowler Classic Automobile. Stephen.

TooHipCat | Stephen, Once again...it was a pleasure meeting you in Carlisle. Too bad you couldn't stay for the banquet. Do you remember when you installed one of your gas shocks on Eddie's Weekender...did it raise the top cover up higher than the previously installed prop rod?![](http://www.prowleronline.com/ubb/smilies/huh.gif) I don't mind the prop rod but it doesn't lift the cover high enough for my liking. Thanks for passing on such a great product!!! Brian![](http://www.prowleronline.com/ubb/smilies/biggrin.gif) P.S. Too bad you couldn't make it to Woodward. I bet you'd sell a ton of your products there!![](http://www.prowleronline.com/ubb/smilies/thumb.gif) |
Stephen Fenner | TooHipCat, If Louisville turned into Carlisle for you at the banquet, you are so correct, I really did miss a good time indeed. I have almost ruled out Woodward, although I have received a lot of persuasion to go this last week to say the least. It is on next Saturday the 19th Correct? |

Here's the official Woodward thread!!! http://www.prowleronline.com/ubb/Forum5/HTML/000913.html |
Eddie Powell | Here is a new pic showing the corrected bracket for the top of the strut. I think Stephen and I measured it will open Two inches wider. ![](http://www.prowleronline.com/ubb/image_uploads/WWW/weekstrut.jpg)
