[QUOTE="sapest, post: 1346540, member: 29340"] Iggy Based on the damage, I would speculate the bolt failed/fell out today. It would appear to me the first rr brake application after the torque rod was loose would cause the rotor rotation and everything else. If mechanical failure is least likely, then an un-torqued nut is most likely. If the bolt was inserted and the nut left off, I am guessing it would have come apart long before 2500 miles. I'm going back to the scene of the crime tomorrow to see if I can find the bolt. -Steve [/QUOTE]
