Default Trunk Problem!

Im having trouble with my truck, Only one side of the truck struts are working. Whenever i put my other one back on, it snaps off. Also btw the part connected to the body of the Jeep, wobbles. Should I weld the truck strut so it wont pop off???

you need to post some pics of the place that the struts are disconecting cause there is a safety pin on each end of the shocks that prevent them from loosing from strut mount on the hatch , maybe you are not using this pin in the pic you can see that the pin is letter C , check that you are inserting it in the ball stud...

if that is the issue then it will be no problem on soldering that part , there is no use of that unless you are changing the struts and they come with the new ones , so you can solder those ...
