Default Bolt for rear tranny mount DISAPPEARED!!!!

so my mxle got torn up really badly and i wasnt sure what had caused it so i took it in to have the techs have a look at it, and about 15 mins after it was in the shop they called me to have a look and they showed me that the bolt for the rear tranny mount was not there... how does that happen, it was just gone!! and it was hanging about one and a half inches lower... wtf?

I think someone forgot to put the nut on the bolt... Thats probably what messed up your axles.

Why lemon laws? This doesnt even remotely qualify for that.

Something wasnt tightened obviously Hope you get it back on the road soon.

well theres a nut welded on the other side to thread into... but when i tried putting a new bolt in it was stripped... so i had to get a bolt with longer threads and put another nut on it...

well its been like that for a few months n i didnt know and was drivng the car... it just vibrated a lil but i assumed it was cuz of the axle...

i ordered a new axle so ill be comming in soon.. hopefulyy thatll be the end of the problems.. im just a lil worried cuz since i fixed the bolt issue the tranny clunks when i shift into 2nd and 3rd gear... im prayin its jus the axle now.
