I just did mine and it is a bitch. I used a 2x4 to prop up the gate as high as possible. Then put the end on that faces the front of the car and use a big screwdriver to slightly comprss the other end into place. You will work up a sweat. I only needed 1 of the new ones at it holds up very well. Wait until you tackle the broken power seat cable - even funner.
