Well , after browsing the net found SGS engineering with a good clip on changing the struts so easy , ford wanted £50 each strut, SGS said the struts fitted to my camper were ford transit rated 810 Newton lbs and suggested struts rated at 980 newton lbs at a price, p&p inclusive £62 robbing ###tards ford, anyway job now done perfect so easy .
