Please describe the problem you are having, just a little better please.
"rolling mechanism", are you talking about the window regulator? Coil spring mechanism that has the window roll up and down handle attached to it, and is riveted or bolted to the inside of the door?
Or how to attach the glass (that set's in a track) to the arm? Looks like this? If your window is loose in the tracks maybe you need new seals? FYI there is no adjustment to that tension, sounds like something is broke?

If the rivets holding the mechanism are wearing out,then you need to drill them out and replace with bolts washers and lock nuts. Grease the track your rollers go into like shown above. If its the rollers themselves that are loose you may me able to use counter sunk metal screws with nut's but it's not a good repair. your prbably best off going to a jy and finding another mechanism.
