Some years ago I used this method temporarily when the struts failed on my '84 7 passenger. The downside, for me, was when "others" would try to shut the hatch for me. When at first they didn't succeed, they only pulled harder. It wasn't long after that that I put two heavy duty struts on and left the pipes off.

What I'm really saying is ... be careful when others are around.
