Unhappy Scary Ride!!!

While on my way home this evening I was driving along at about 45 when my truck decided it wanted to be sideways. By the grace of God no one hit me but it sure was an interesting ride.

It was dark but it looks like one of the u-bolts holding the right lower control arm broke. I just wanted to know if this is a common problem and if there is anything in particular that I should be looking at in the way of collateral damage? Is the shaft likely to be toast now?

I sure don't want this to happen again so I guess I will go ahead a replace all of the u-bolts.

BTW, I am pretty new to the board but have gotten alot of good info from you guys already. Glad you are here. My truck is a 67 LWB 1/2 ton Fleetside. Needs alot of work but has been fun so far.
