I see you are using vice grips to hold it up at the moment?
You might have to do a custom actuator lift, considered that?

Try finding the little metal clips that are used on screen doors to hold them open, or have some made.... The old screen doors, they sit on the strut and when it trys to close they somehow stop it....
