My tailgate won't stay up so I ordered a pair of new struts from eeuroparts on ebay but I can't figure out how to get them installed. They are about 1/4 inch longet than the old ones and with the tailgate pushed up as hard as possible they still are too long to snap the socket onto the ball.
Any sugesstions on how to get theses suckers to fit?
Thanks,
Bill
Return them and get the right ones.

Can you compress the new struts slightly with one end attached? It may be that they need to be slightly compressed on installation.
