I have tried the search function to no avail. Does anyone have the suggested steps for re-installing the two springs (stressed metal rods) that keep the trunk up when open ?? If I missed a thread on this, please point me in the right direction. Thanks

It is actually easy with a 10 mm box wrench and a craftsman 1/2 inch breaker bar with the hole in the handle notched to a "c" simply start the spring forward with the box wrench then grab it with the handle of the breaker bar and ease it around the roller. There is a diagram and a procedure in the "Tech Tips 700"
