This man is a genius, and showed a “ numb skull “, like me how to do the job !. Also thanks to Richard Shelton, I enlisted the help of a friend, which made the job safe.
WARNING !!! - The tail gate is actually very heavy, and if it starts to fall downwards, without both gas struts fully secured in place, it can rapidly gain momentum and can become extremely dangerous. It could knock you severely on the head or crush your hand, especially between the glass lid and body quarter panel, rather like a guillotine action. Probably needing a call to A&E!! - Therefore, you absolutely MUST prop up the tail gate first, in the FULLY OPEN position, with a strong support which is FULLY LOCKED in place. Many videos of this sort show a flimsy support which falls away when you lift the tailgate to obtain the length needed for the new extended strut (you cannot compress it !) leaving you at risk of an accident. Even with one new gas strut in place, it is still not strong enough to hold up the tail gate in the half way open position. Better still have a friend to assist and keep an eye on the prop and hold the tailgate if it should start to slip. I humbly offer this advice as it all very nearly happened to me after watching some of these videos - so hope it helps save an accident!
Cheers fella. No fuss video straight to the point.
