and the shaft popped thru the box. No damage to the threads but did the full extension cause any damage to the strut? Are they to be limited in their extension just to fit better in the box or do I now have a problem??

Being at full ext won't hurt the strut at all. It is easier to pack them collapsed and it helps to protect the shaft too.

That's what I suspected. Thanks, Fred
