What year is it? There was a recall on some.
You need a new door post to fix it, which is a fair job....

A new door post? Why? It has come unwelded, but there do not appear
to be any holes in the underlying metal... It's like the original weld
didn't have proper penetration...
I'm thinking that I'll need to put a wooden block underneath the door
to ------ the force a bit and then use a hydraulic jack to lift up on
it until the weld goes back into place... Then, re-weld it in place...

The ones I am thinking about had rotted door posts so the welds let go
from them.
My source didn't show a recall on the 95.
