I've been using a stick to keep my trunk open, the torsion bars just weren't doing their job.
I have a pair of torsion bars from a car I parted out, so I decided to put the "newer" ones in.
First, removing the bars is a pain, so I gave up and started to put it back together when...
I discovered that I really hate to learn things the hard way.
Maybe you knew this, but I sure didn't.
There is a second "notch" for the torsion bar at the end with the 90 degree bend..
Took about two hours to do what could have been done in five minutes.
Now the trunk lid stands erect and proud.
