Tail Gate Strut Won't go in! 850

Thanks for your replies - finally did it yesterday. After really working up a sweat I eventually filed down the thread by 1mm each end, and then it finally popped in!! So finally saved myself £60 just on the parts - so worth it!! My wife now complains that the tail gate could be a hazard as it rises up so fast! No pleasing is there!

Thanks again - appreciate your replies!
