Hi, I ended up using 2, 150# gas struts for my M-416 trailer lid. So I have two extra 50# struts, from McMaster-Carr:

Gas Spring with Ball-Joint End Fitting, 50 lb Force, 35.43" Extended Length, 16.14" Stroke

I paid 20 bucks each, willing to let them go for $20 plus shipping.

There is some very slight chipping of the paint near the ball joints, so I don't think I could return them. Otherwise they were only used once, installed, and I quickly learned that they were not strong enough for my very heavy lid.
