Looks like the last shop i went to didnt tighten the bolts good enough, but i was driving today and taking a corner I felt this loud *** rubbing noise. Turns out the panhard was hanging down on the left and the rear was wobbling side by side every time I swoop the steering wheel.
I drove about 60 miles like this...to get home. Taking corners and what not, with that shitty *** rubbing sound. What is the most damage I couldve done? It looks like the wheel wells are scraped to all hell. I hope thats all it did.
Also what are the bolt sizes for those things? I dont think the rod is broken, i just need another bolt. Thanks!

Unfortunately, the bolt is a "stepped" deal, where one end is larger diameter than the other. I think the only place you'll find one is at a GM dealer.
Hope you didn't bend up the frame tabs too badly where the LCAs bolt up, as this is where the back and forth action of the axle was pivoting.
