Re: loose bolt alfa one

Depending on which of the bolts is broken it could cause lots of trouble. One possibility is that you lose the gear oil out of the upper gearcase and seize it. Also, since these bolts carry all of the thrust that your drive creates you could overload the remaining bolts and lose your drive. My recommendation is to fix it.
