Thanks to Kelly Bauman's forwarded instructions, I picked up a 10' section of 1/2" PVC pipe yesterday to make some of these hatch strut supports. The hatch on our '87 is not quite ready to give out, but they sag after a few minutes in the cold.

BTW, I did say 1/2" since Kelly mentioned that 3/4" (from the original instructions) is probably overkill.

I'll have a few extras to throw in the van, so if you see us at LiMBO events or whatever, hit me up for a set. :-)
