His bolt is still there, but it may be broken.

If you think about it that end piece of the t-bar has to be able to rock or slide in the cradle when you adjust the t-bars. Your's was just rusted so bad it looked like it used to be welded on place. In fact, I think I remember putting grease there now to make the t-bar adjustment easier. Oh well, at least the mount was only $10, maybe they will take it back.

It also looks like your bolt is still intact because that's what seems to be holding the t-bar end up in the air.

My guess is something broke at the other end, or maybe the bar itself.

Man, I'm glad I have AZ/NM vehicles, that rust is a killer

ok i just looked at it i think i must have stripped the end that conects to the upper control arm and it clicked some teeth over and i prob need to get new tortion bars and i might as well get the brackets that mount to the upper control arm. im going to throw it on the lift later and look further into it but i think this is what happend because the bar isnt broke and the mount is ok so it must be the other end.

yea i took it apart and i found out that i striped out the bracket on the upper control arm. i looked it up on the computer and theres only one in the country its in boston and will be here tommarow morning. the teeth on the tortion bar luckely look good though.

i looked into this and it was too much work to swap out all of the a arms. my friend has his ifs from his sas taco but for 38 bucks and 30min of work the truck is fixed.
