Just goes to show how important it is to crawl under and inspect these beasts on a regular basis. I am wintering in Florida near New Smyrna Beach. Could anybody recommend a Ford truck service center in the area?
Shawn,
This has been a problem for some time but normally it effect older models. You really dont need to take it to ford. Just take the remaining bolt to a good hardware stote and match it. Get a high grade bolt. Grade 8 US or 10.9 metric No cheap home depot bolt


The nut is welded to the frame so all you need to do is just screw the new bolt in. Use blue loctite and torque to 66 ft lbs
It looks like your bushing is still in good shape. If its torn up go to irv2.com and search for Skuterdude. He sells them and they are top quality.
