850 wagon tailgate struts--trouble prying off and metal stripping off socket

Thanks, as always, Klaus. I appreciate that you are always taking time to share tips.

Time for a crowbar and/or a rubber mallet with a little bit of elbow grease! Those things are easy to get on but oddly harder to get off than they look. A die saw as a last resort.
