Replacing 95 LHS Trunk Lid Spring

[Dave+Jacquie Montgomery]

Does anyone know how to reload the coil spring on the post for the right
side of the trunk lid.The post arm broke off that holds the spring loaded
and I was thinking of replacing the post with a nut and bolt but can't find
a way of reloading the spring around the post.


Regards Dave

much easier to pick up a used assembly at a scrap yard and replace
whole thing. got one for 20 bucks and saved a lot of aggravation
trying to repair old unit. replacement from dealership is quite
expensive
