I was driving home from work in the rain and i was breaking unusually loose when turning left around a round about. I wrote it off on worn tires and the semi wet road. I get into my parking garage and i heard rubbing. I park my car and look and i noticed massive negative camber on the right rear wheel. I pulled the wheel off found the lower control arm bolt(the inner one) is gone. I must have not torqued it down when i installed the h-sport arms.

What now? Needless to say, the car isnt going anywhere. The inner lip of the wheel was rubbing against the housing above the shock bolts. It rubbed pretty good too.

Any suggestions/where to get a new bolt? Its such a tricky bolt too.

Thanks guys.

Edit*

Went to realoem.com found this schematic. What numbers do i need? I'm thinking a No. 17 and 16.

I think you could go to the Mini dealer to get one.

 

Too bad i dont do business with Spanish. Its going to be a long wait for the bolt and nut to get here from Alabama.

 

Call or e-mail Dustin at autoxcooper.com.I think he is the very best at these kind of things.

 

Ok great. i already have a set of stud adapters coming out that i ordered from him. thanks

 

Much thanks for the link J. Now, if I could just get a wiring diagram....

 

You're welcome tvrgeek. I finally got and installed that bolt yesterday, so far so good.
