Ok I looked on the threds, but I didn't see anything regarding repairing and replacing the torsion springs.
I believe I am using the right terminology. I am talking about the hinge on the rear trunk lid. The rear trunk dosen't close all the way, when I push it down, I have to push the edge of the trunk forward to close it, and then there is a gap between the rear corner panel and the trunk. I pulled the trunk lid to begin sanding for paint, and decided to take a look. Where the hinge is welded to the the inside wall, I found it broke loose. So how do I remove the dang thing? There is tension obviously in the bar, so what is the best way to remove it without taking my arm off ? ANy direction would be appreciated... Thanks |
