So it was 2 of the bolts, apparently 2 bolts and 2 studs that hold the subframe in? They showed me the ones

Ordered through ford , $16 each and $15 for postage so yeah not too far off the mark Ralph!! Rather pay that than have the rear end of my car hanging on with 2 fixings... Seems questionable I'm glad nothing's happened yet!

Christ it's a miracle these cars don't just spontaneously combust. Bolts and nuts that just go missing straight up. Wonder how many are getting around the roads like that. At least you caught them dude :)

BTW my comment was 90% tongue in cheek, I do love my Falcon to bits hahaha. But 10% is still worry that I have some missing too :)

To be fair to the old falcon they reckon someone changed the bushes before and didn't get em back in/ lost them/ threaded holes(praying it wasn't this one!!!)

Hahah I love mine too despite its problems.
