The plastic roller for the spring rod of the rear trunk lid hinge looks like it’s about to come off of the shaft. What techniques do folks use for releasing the tension of the spring? Is it then just a matter of pushing the roller further onto the shaft and putting the spring back in place?
Thanks, Mike |

A tool can easily be made. I put a notch in an old crescent wrench and it worked just fine.
