Wheelhorse Parts & More has the 114-343 for 30 bucks, ive tried a few that physically fit but one wanted to push the seat up all the time and the other was too tight. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Handy Don 14,126 #7 Posted December 16, 2021 (edited) I got a pair of 60 pounders off the bay for $14 a year ago. Search for "liftstrutstore" Yes, 70 lbs is not too much. 10" with eyelets at both ends. Attach the cylinder to the seat and the piston to the fender bracket.
