I am sure you know what you have, but just wanted to post that "early Kitfox lift struts" does not mean they will fit all models - The 1 and 2 struts were shorter and attached to the spars closer to the fuselage and at a different angle than the 3 and 4 models.   EDMO

I have no idea. I was told the stuff was Kitfox, for sure they are not Avid. The torn-up fuselage I got with the stuff is Kitfox, maybe I or II. For sure not IV If somebody needs the strut, text or call me and I'll get dimensions. If not, I'll cut them up for the tubing. The stuff isn't doing me any good. It doesn't eat anything, but it does take up a lot of space. I also have a cabin top.

Bob,  If you are anyone needs dimensions, I have a set of KF2 and a set of KF3 struts to measure - KF3 should have rod ends on both tubes.   EDMO

If the Kitfox fuse is 36" wide, it's model 1.  The 2 and later are 39 1/2" wide measured at the top of the seat.  Also, the Kitfox 1 door is different from later models.  Here is a Kitfox 1 that shows the door bottom.  Jim Chuk
