Any Houstonian replace their own struts?

Hey guys,

Was wondering if anyone from Houston has replaced their struts themselves. I had mine replaced a few months ago, and last week I went over some piece of wood on the freeway, my rear tires got most of it, and ever since, they have become lose.

I removed the rear seat bottom and back, and I can see the struts actually move around and rattle while I drive.

If anyone can help diagnose, and even fix, I'd happily compen$ate. (I am near 290 and beltway 8).

Just thought I'd ask here and give someone a chance to make some dough before I go to a shop or worse a dealer :d
