Skidim.com is your best bet. That's who I bought mine from.

Agee. I've bought one from them as well. Been doing business with them for a long time. This should be the strut you need: http://www.skidim.com/STRUT-SUPRA-14-Degree-1-SHAFT/productinfo/101030/

had it at my prop guy and after 2.5 weeks I went there and it was just sitting on his counter, he said he couldn't get it straight. I am not sure how hard he tried if at all. Took it to another place yesterday, but they said upfront it will be 2 weeks before they even look at it being so backed up right now. I was hoping someone might have one i could get at a discount but looks like with skid or wait.......

cjpilot, I bent my strut last summer and had the same results with my prop guy. Put the "fixed" strut back on and it was still bent. He refunded my money. I ended up ordering a new one. Hard pill to swallow but it's straight. I paid $205.

You guys need better prop shops! The one we used to always work with in NH would turn things around in a week average, maybe two at most, in season. They would tell you right away if something could be fixed, or not. The only thing is, I don't think they dealt directly with the public, you had to bring stuff to an affiliated shop (I worked at one). H&H Prop in Salem, Mass was the outfit. They were fantastic.

To the OP, it sounds like a new one might be the easiest route in this case.
