Does anybody have a picture or drawing on where and how to attach the lift struts to the door frame and cabin door. Where did you buy the gas struts?

Charles,
What you are looking for is the Suspa gas spring C-16-10788/ It has a 12.2"
extended length and an 8.3" compressed length and a 35# force. It can be
ordered from:
http://www.jlkrakercompany.com/suspa_cylinder_pricing.htm
I am sure there are other manufacturers and suppliers, but this is one
source for the original supplied Skystar and Denney gas springs.

Charles:
There's a vendor on e-bay who sells gas struts. Search on "suspa" and "C-16-10788."
I bought 2 new in original packaging for what you'll pay for one anywhere else. As I recall, that was the "buy it now" price.
