Yeah, I think it's maybe 3/4 of the way broke off, maybe just little under half of the bolt is still in there but I'm not 100% sure how long the bolt actually is. After I broke it I kinda pulled/pried on the sensor to see if it was loose, and it didn't wiggle at all so maybe I can get away with it for a little while. My question now is, while I'm at the alignment shop should I have them go ahead and hit the bolts with the air gun, or just try to do it myself at home? I know they're gonna charge me a sh*t load because their prices on everything went up because of the corona stuff, their alignment went up $10 from last week. I'm thinking about doing it myself, because I don't have much money left. Also, the upper ball joint worries me because I'm pretty sure it's all the way in the knuckle, other wise I don't think that I would've been able to get the bolt in to pinch it together because the balljoint had a little groove in it for the bolt to go past it...
