Description
When you’re climbing in and out of the cab all day checking equipment, grabbing tools, or just moving between field operations, a failing door strut can turn into a real problem. If your cab door won’t stay open or comes slamming shut when you least expect it, this replacement strut gets things back to working like they should. With an overall length of 12.97 inches and 6.29-inch piston stroke, it’s built to handle the weight of your heavy cab door while giving you smooth, reliable operation.
What You’re Getting
- Proper force rating designed specifically for these heavy cab doors – not a one-size-fits-all solution
- Quality TISCO construction that handles the constant vibration and temperature swings of farm work
- Direct replacement that bolts right into your existing mounting points without modifications
- Sealed design keeps dirt, moisture, and crop debris from fouling the internal mechanism
Built for Real Farm Work
This strut fits Case IH 7000 series tractors (7110 through 7250), 8000 series models (8910 through 8950), and MX series machines from the MX180 up to the MX285. Whether you’re running a mid-size utility tractor for livestock operations or a big MX pulling heavy tillage equipment, these are serious work machines that need cab doors you can count on to stay put when you need access to the operator station.
Made to Last
Farm equipment takes a beating, and door struts are no exception. This one’s engineered to handle thousands of open-close cycles while dealing with bouncing down rough field roads, temperature swings from winter mornings to summer afternoons, and the occasional bump from loader buckets or tree branches. The internal seals stay flexible and keep doing their job season after season.
Installation Notes
Swapping out a door strut typically takes about 15 minutes with basic hand tools. Always prop the door securely before removing the old strut – these doors are heavier than they look and can cause injury if they drop unexpectedly. The ball-socket connections usually pop right off the mounting studs, but a little penetrating oil helps if they’ve been on there for years. Clean the mounting points while you’ve got everything apart, and check that the door opens and closes smoothly after installation.
