Most vehicles have had this done, but the rh stud still works loose. Its worth checking regularly as failure can take time and effort to fix.

Both sides on mine are tight..
will keep a check on them though.. You only live once, but if you work it right, once is enough.

Just got a 55 Disco and came upon this thread. My right hand bolt was undone by nearly a centimetre!
Now fixed - thanks
