Rear Wheel looks like it is falling off!!
On my 1994 LS400 (330K miles); when driving heard a clunking noise coming from right rear, the rear end fishes when braking; when I looked at the right rear tire it appears to be way out of alignment. When I got under the car, I discovered that the right rear strut rod is hanging loose and the stut rod bolt is missing. Is the car driveable or should I have it towed to the shop. How hard is to be replace the bolt myself? Any ideas?

I don't ever remember those coming off.

Spoke to my mechanic by phone - who is a certified Lexus mechanic - he told me to do exactly that - get a replacement bolt, lock tite from either Lowes or Home Depot and bring the car to him for a complete check to see why the bolt came off.
