hey guys
before i start my question i have searched
and i do see that big button that says search that is flashing at me

what i want to know is how does everybody with a real type x wing keep their hatch staying up?
i took off the wing for a bit and my hatch stayed up perfectly

but then i put it back on because it looks too cool and yeah ):

ive been trying to fix everything on the car and get everything working as it should
and this has been a weird hurdle that i tripped on and fell on my face :confused:

is there like a different car with a heavier hatch stock that i could pull struts off of or something?
any help at all would be great
thanks
