Bob Chesley reported that he used a Motormite 95051 with good results. By mistake, I bought a Mighty Lift 95051 (AVM Inc). The free length is 3-3/8" longer than the original, and the barrel is 1" longer (9" vs 8"). The hole in the fixed end (upper end in the airplane) is 0.317" vs 0.245" The lower end of the Mighty Lift does not have the rubber bushing that the original has. Is this the same as the Motormite? Is there a national chain that carries Motormite? (Autozone and O'Reilly do not.)
