Gas struts bonnet/tail gate

Hi all,
Can someone tell me what the size/stroke/extended length is for OEM struts for bonnet and tailgate are please.
I replaced my originals a couple of years ago,but I bought what I thought would be good struts but they have turned to crap. Censored Big Cry
Looking to replace with better versions without the LR price tag.
TIA

Were the ones that you tried listed as being for the L322? The inexpensive ones that I bought from ebay listed as being for the L322 have been fine. Same goes for the ones for my tractor's heavy bonnet which were listed as suitable for the particular tractor.

The ones I bought were from a gas strut place in OZ.
Cant remember there name but the bonnet struts are crap now,only 2-3 years old.
The ones on the tailgate were replaced when I had a truck n dog hit the rear.
I,m pretty sure the tailgate opened higher before the accident,but havent worried about it till now.
I,ll have a look on fleabay and see whats about.

I paid $30 for a pair of bonnet struts in July 2017.

Worth trying SGS engineering - I haven’t had any RR gas struts but have had loads of others. They lasted well and weren’t dear
