tailgate struts 1991 745T 700 1991


Greetings and help!

I am trying to replace the tailgate struts on my 1991 740 Turbo Wag. I propped up the tailgate and
removed the tiny wire clamps from the top and bottem of the existing struts.
Now here is my problem:

I easily pulled off the tailgate end but the part of the strut that hooks on the car frame doesn't seem to want to come off. Should I force it? bang it off with a hammer?

Thanks in advance for any and all tips.
*** Mike
