Jak2Rich is an unknown quantity at this point
Gas shocks

My team (2495 Hornets) and I were wondering if anyone knew how to figure out what size and or type of gas shocks to use, and if so, where to buy them.
They will be used to help support the main collector and shooting arm on our robot. The arm is 56 in long, about 20 lbs, and the piviot point is 22 in. above the base. (I know the numbers sound crazy, but just work with us please.)
