Easy to replace the tailgate struts. I suggest getting the slightly more expensive OE struts, they just work a lot better than the knock-offs.

Once the top plastic trim is removed, use a flat screwdriver or small pry bar to pop off the old strut and install the new one. The struts have a small pin to keep the ball in place, easily inserted with a pair of needle nose pliers.
