Lucky escape?

Not nice, but at least it signalled its failure and didn't just fall out or snap. But as some above said get a new bolt.
Mind you in a perverse sot of way maybe it just as well it wasn't all nicely freed off and greased up!

The torque for those is quite high, if I remember correctly. I think I'd be inclined to go round checking all the suspension bolts with a torque wrench.
I'd guess it wasn't torqued up and probably not with the suspension under load
OP - get ALL 22 bolts checked ASAP!

jeees you are lucky!! I had some bumping noises and was putting off checking as I had a similar issue a couple weeks prior which was the nut for the top link on the ARB and thought it just came loose...
After looking at this thread I got up out of bed and rushed out to check my car, bolts were fine but the ARB links were loose again... neeed to buy some threadlock
