Hi, to remove the tailgate off a ford bantam 1.3i you need an imoact driver with a phillips tip , with the tailgate closed remove the phillips bolt beneath the pivoting pin, now open the tailgate and remove the bolt above the pivoting pin , reach beneath the bumper corner and retrieve the the pin moving the tailgate slightly up and down, with the tailgate now resting on the rear sill, remove the collapsable hinge , the operation is best done with an assistant .
Hope this helps a bit;
Kind regards

Raise and support the truck on jackstands.
Fig. 1: Installing the upper control arm — C-Series
Support the lower control arm with a floor jack.
Remove the wheel.
Remove the air cleaner extension (if necessary).
Unbolt the brake hose bracket from the control arm.
Remove the cotter pin from the upper control arm ball stud and loosen the stud nut until the bottom surface of the nut is slightly below the end of the stud.
Install a spring compressor on the coil spring for safety.
Using a screw-type forcing tool, break loose the ball joint from the knuckle.
Remove the nuts and bolts securing the control arm to the frame brackets.
Tape the shims and spacers together and tag for proper reassembly. The 35 Series bushings are replaceable. The 15/25 Series bushings are welded in place.
To install:
Installation is the reverse of removal but please note the following important steps.
Place the control arm in position and install the shims, bolts and new nuts. Both bolt heads must be inboard of the control arm brackets. Tighten the nuts finger tighten for now.
NOTE: Do not tighten the bolts yet. The bolts must be torqued with the truck at its proper ride height.
Install the ball stud nut. Tighten the nut to specification.
Lower the truck. Once the weight of the truck is on the wheels:
Lift the front bumper about 38mm and let it drop.
Repeat this procedure 2 or 3 more times.
Draw a line on the side of the lower control arm from the centerline of the control arm pivot shaft, dead level to the outer end of the control arm.
Measure the distance between the lowest corner of the steering knuckle and the line on the control arm. Record the figure.
Push down about 38mm on the front bumper and let it return. Repeat the procedure 2 or 3 more times.
Re-measure the distance at the control arm.
Determine the average of the 2 measurements. The average distance should be 95.0mm plus or minus 6mm.
If the figure is correct, tighten the control arm pivot nuts to 88 ft. lbs. (120 Nm) on 1988–90 models; 140 ft. lbs. (190 Nm) on 1991–98 models.
If the figure is not correct, tighten the pivot bolts to 88 ft. lbs. (120 Nm) on 1988–90 models; 140 ft. lbs. (190 Nm) on 1991–98 models and have the front end alignment corrected.
If the model number you have this listed under is correct, there is no adjustment. More than likely the door pivot and/or hinges are worn. They can easily be replaced, however. The part numbers are as follows:
Door Pivot - 8184922
Upper Door Hinge - W10114255
Lower Door Hinge - W10114254
You can find these parts at appliancepartspros.com. Just type in the model number and locate items 6, 8, and 13 under the "Door Parts" heading.
