Dranom would be correct, the two bolts that go into the knuckle/spindle through the RCA broke. The suspension is already fixed with new bolts in place. I think the suckiest part of the ordeal was being 130 miles from home in small-town Wisconsin.

dang sorry to hear/see this! makes me scared to install my RCAs! the bolts i have look to be grade 8?!
what ian from studio told me is that if the bolt peaks too soon when tightening into the knuckle, you need to cut off the tip of the bolt. he told me not all knuckles are threaded equally, some being deeper than others so the bolt at times could be a few mm too long. this only goes for one bolt as the other threaded hole is open on the other side. just a thought!
Look at the faded rear bumper.
