    A week ago I replaced my driver side CV axle because the inner boot ripped in half. However, today I stumbled across a step I missed in installation, putting Loctite on the spindle-lca bolts. Naturally I freaked out a bit and went to look under my truck and found I was already missing one of the four bolts that secures the spindle to the lower control arm. Where can I get another one to replace it? I torqued all the others and they are not at all loose, I realize I must be lucky that only one failed and nothing fell apart. Knowing that, how dangerous/dumb would it be to drive on it as it is now?

    Pull one out take it with you

    If your lucky your local hardware store might have them

    I think they are M10x1.25 I am guessing the length might be between 30 and 45 mm

    Just a guess
