[s-cars] Anyone experience this? Front Suspension

S-listers,

An unusual rubbing of my right front tire led me to discover that the swaybar nut had loosened.  As result, my entire front control arm/strut had moved approx an inch towards the rear of the fender.  Upon inspection, I had about .25" of threaded nut remaining.  Disaster avoided...

I replaced the lower control arms and sub-frame mounts last summer and remember torqueing the nuts to 125 ft'lbs.  No locktite; no evidence it had been used before.

When I went to consult the Bentley, but since I re-installed the software, RB makes you call to re-register (and, yep, they are enjoying T-giving...).

Any insight?
