Shown in 3rd pictur Post# 2:
STRUTS 100# 16.14" stroke
McMaster Part# 9416K23
I'm doing the same build, essentially :cheers:
Although I chose 75# struts, because I want the struts to assist a little bit but I also want to lessen the counteracting force the struts does when moving in the opposite direction. Hence 75# as opposed to 100#. Not only that, but my Z axis servo is 1.0 HP (750W) so I don't think a large lift assist is necessary (heck, I'm aware of a few machines like this have been running for years with NO ASSIST)
Your avatar is a "cracked picture" icon (for lack of better description) might want to check out what went wrong.

Did you run your 750W servos with any reduction ratio? or direct 1:1?
