[DML] Re: Door Strut Removal Method

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

As John says, first be sure you have removed the spring clip. I have
personally seen struts that just do not want to come off. Hitting it
with a short piece of 2X4 might do it. Be sure you have propped the
door open. On 1 car once we had to destroy the end of the strut to get
it off. Be careful prying, you do not want to bend anything.
