Best Answer

You need a 40 Torx screwdriver. Remove the two bolts holding each pivot point on the bed side of your S10, and the single bolt holding the out hinge on the gate itself. Put the new hinges on, tighten the Torx bolts.

The Torx bolts seem to strip easily. You might consider changing them to Allen heads as part of the procedure.
