[Shotimes] Leftover nut after clutch job

[Hartberger, Jason M. AT2 (AW)]

Oh screw it, just take it for a drive, the car will tell you pretty
quick what you forgot to put on! I did it once, and the car told me
within 100 feet that I forgot to put the rear control arm bolts back in
:). Car made funny noises and the rear left wheel was pointing a funny
direction <G> no permanent damage, though. Seriously, it's just one nut.
How bad can it be?

Jason

Yeah, I'm kinda kidding. But seriously, if you wanna know...

Pinch bolt nut at LCA ball joint?  Sorry if this was already mentioned.
