I've had the bolts that go through the torque arm and rear end not only come loose but even fall out. I'd hear a loud clank whenever I'd go over any bump. I had to replace the bolts twice. The last time I used a nylon locking nut and locking washers to help keep it on. It's been fine for about 1 1/2 years.
