299D2 Caterpillar Lift Assist Spring gas Shock Support (Replacement) to Raise Cab

Sorry that yoke on the end of the gas strut is not a serviceable part from Cat and I have no idea where you might find one. Maybe the only way would be to use the existing one from the other strut and have a machine shop make one. It's basically a piece of round bar with an internal thread welded to a piece of tube. How much that would cost I have no idea.

Yes I can see that from CATs website, but these struts aren't special, Ive used them in many different applications outside of heavy equipment and they all have threaded ends like that, surely someone, somewhere has it, ill just have to get measurements and search

Nope, I was thinking the standard ball and socket type retainers.
That just looks like a threaded T.
Not something that hard to make.
McMaster may have something like that.
Or something else, check on Amazon.
