That's a first, for me anyway, the bolt must have been run loose to shear at that point, , its possible to buy uprated bolts, or eccentric camber adjusters, but I've not seen any need for these, as I've not broken one in years of trying, altho' i do take some precautions, for they will come loose in motor sports or off road use, where the norm is to re torque them every event, i prefer to drill the bolt head and lock wire them, others like to use loctite on the thread. once i almost ripped a rear wheel off with enough force to pull the torsion tube back a foot or more and tear the a arm almost off the inner pivot, but the bolt held, altho' it was banana shaped, my neck likewise after that. any pics yet?. good luck with it anyway.
