You need to go down to the police station and check your self in how did you manage that?

just left side hinge
right side stays in place
The new hinge has a spring inside to assist the lowering of tailgate

Great find dude!!
Left side hinge part #4L3Z-83430B39-AA. Ford calls it a roller for some reason. The spring is actually inside the tailgate, not the hinge. Its called lift assist.
