Putting the trunk rollers on involves taking the tension off of the torsion rods, sliding the old rollers off, and then sliding the new rollers on. There is a lot of energy stored in the torsion rods, and they can really hurt you quite badly if they slip somehow. (Don't ask how I know this.)

Mike Cooley designed a pretty cool clamp-on tool that can be used to take the tension off of the torsion rods. Others have used deep-well sockets with extensions on them to put leverage on the end of the torsion rods. Don't let them slip... I recommend against using open-end wrenches, though. (Again, don't ask...)
