Hi William,
If you take a look at http://europa363.versadev.com/apr-02.html you can see
what I have done. It includes some measurements which should be a good
starting point.
I copied this idea from Jim Nelson's Europa and it seems to work nicely.

> All,
> Some time ago on the forum a member came up with a good idea for improving
the door strut operation. I seem to remember it involved the gas strut
operating a pair of hinged aluminium angle legs to open the door, so that
all the force of the gas strut was contained by the aluminium angles when in
the closed position and not by the corner of the door. If anyone has done
such a mod I would very much like to hear from them. Also, is there a
method to persuade the door corners back to the correct shape?
