TB Stabilus gas strut identification (and 600N struts and €800 brackets, now available for £65 via EuroGA)

Due to the cold weather low temp the door gas struts of my TB20 GT became absolutely weak. I haven‘t pulled out the struts yet but from the frontside perspective it seems obvious that one of the former MX shops exchanged the copilot side with a wrong strut being a few cm too long because the open gull wing door when open attacks the fuselage hinge instead of stopping a few cm before the end/stop position of the open door.
Would it be possible that one of the pre-poster PM me or post a link for a supplier of a 600N strut with the correct length?
This recently was a good advice for a supply but it points to the 400N strut. Txs for any help inn advance.

@chris do you know whether your bracket was ever changed for the new one?

I guess if your strut says “400N” on it, then probably not.

I have some part numbers here.

Thank you very much for your help. I assume the brackets have not been changed. Hope the exchange is not too much hassle unscrewing the covers and keeping the doors up by any kind of DIY attachment

I have ordered these to my TB-20: 2x Stabilus Gas Spring L231-400N – CA047708
I will report how it fit.

It fits perfectly. The two were 130 EUR with delivery.
