Carefree of Colorado awning part

I've got a Carefree 12 volt One-Touch awning over my entry door. Apparently Carefree no longer makes a powered door awning and one dealer I've talked to has never seen one over a door. Anyway, the gas strut on mine is worn out and I am trying to replace it with something comparable. BTW, Carefree no longer carries the strut and does not know the PSI either.

Does anyone know of a supplier for it or its PSI? I see several on Amazon but the PSI is pretty important in keeping it from flopping in the wind when it's extended.

    Check with PPL, parts division in Texas. If anyone has one hanging around, it will be them and if not, they have all the old fiche to look up the info.

    Thanks but that is a different style awning that what I have. That is a Marquee and mine is a One-Touch. Mine has the two upright braces that angle out when the awning unrolls. I don't think that one uses a gas strut.
