Hey Albert. I do have a potential option for you for replacing the Contico 40231550 gas struts on your toolbox, but I am afraid we do not offer a direct replacement. Our closest option is the Universal Gas Strut # ATL88BR This has a 15" extended length and a 8-3/4" retracted length. It also uses a standard 10mm ball socket on each end so for that you would need part # UWSBALLSTUD as well.
