tailgate lift springs

[dalen]

One of the helper lift springs on my 2007 Raptor tailgate has broken. Has anyone replaced one of these and if so what is involved?

Thank You Boonhauler, That was pretty much what I figured. Fortunately the spring that broke is the first one from the left.

Shouldn't a big problem, just keep the door up when you take the assembly apart.

Which spring is it (how far in)? Start from the side closest to the broken spring.

You can get the replacement springs here
