In my experience, cold weather seems to affect the total force of the strut. In other words, the nose gear will free fall with no problem in the summer months but some g-force encouragement is need in colder weather.

Bob,

How much pressure can you specify?  Why not higher than 110lbs?  Maybe 120 or 130 lbs?  Have you installed this unit yet?

In my experience, cold weather seems to affect the total force of the strut.  In other words, the nose gear will free fall with no problem in the summer months but some g-force encouragement is need in colder weather.
