If it were mine, I’d replace both bolts with proper grade (replacement may have been high quality ????), and make sure it was torqued down to proper specifications. Driving any distance at all with it hanging off one bolt like in picture could have compromised that one bolt. It’s unlikely it will fail, but I wouldn’t take the risk. Specs may also require some type of Loctite or similar product because of inherent vibration.



This is another reason it would be nice to see a compact Axis/Vegas built on longer Ford wheelbase instead of having to stretch it, which required driveshaft modifications. I’d trust Ford quality a bit more.
