Ah, looks like the bolt that holds the shock to the knuckle broke off.

This is interesting. That bolt has a very high torque spec (it's apparently very hard to remove). I wonder if it was under-torqued when installed, leading to a fatigue failure?

I would consider having the bolt on the other side replaced, and having the torque on both sides verified. My $.02
