    I need to kno if this is safe?

    I was lowering my car on some new suspension techniques lowering springs and when i got to the rear right side of my car i snapped a bolt head rite off the bolt the part where the bottom of the strut bolts into and i had to drill it out but the whole bushing came out but i just put a bolt in and put it bak together like that. Is it safe to drive the car for a couple of dayz like dat or should i get the part and install it?

      Not safe. You know how u.s road are like. I snap a bolt off before, but I drill it out and install a new bushing in.

            i have the exact problem you did. it was on my rear passanger, and the bolt rusted inside the bushing. i had it cut out and a new bolt was slid in. its been like that for over a year now and its fine.
