hmmm this gonna be a problem?

By Gorveatt
- Wed Jun 04, 2008 12:35 am #57481 So im' finally getting around to install my suspension... yes it's been sitting next to me for the past month and a half collecting dust.

Now on one there is a bolt welded to on side, but not the other, on the other it's not there but appears that it use to be, I picked these up used but they aren't old.

This gonna be an issue? I can't see it causing a big problem, but i want to make sure

QFT. Or use two nuts, one behind the other to lock them in place.
