    the ones that you can pull open the lid and lock it where it will stay open until you get ready to close it. I have searched but I cant seem to come up with the right words to find what I am looking for, can anybody give me and idea what it is I am lookin for ?

    Why don't you get some small gas shocks....they have them at Lowes in different sizes. You can use them and you won't have to change your hinges.

    I know what your talkin about. its a coiled spring that stands straight up then to close you just kink the spring. Maybe a Lowes or a Marine store.

    his place has them--depending on size there not too pricey--just need to know what length--and you prolly need brackets
    the one on my rod box is a SL1-40
