What I would do..

Get it up in the air right away and let the front wheels hang.. take a look at the bolt to see if will be able to take the stress of you removing the nut.. If it will then remove and replace..

If its to weak to take the stress.. ouch.. someone might have some tips.. What people may do in that situation differs.. With the wheels hanging or wheel in your case there is still quite a bit of spring on that rod, since you lowered some it helped ya a bit.. Just not sure what I would do to safely let it fly..

No I would not drive it in that condition.

I hope it can be removed and replaced.. safely..
