[2cylinderhondas] It's better if you don't use the torsion bars. The extra stress on the hatch causes the stress cracks. Usually the reason they pop out of place is the pawls are worn.

Re: Tailgate torsion bars [2 Attachments]
When I ship a windshield I contact my glass guy and get a “Glass company shipping box” They have all the foam in the right places and although I have not shipped many, I have not lost one yet.
