Take it to a alignment shop and get an estimate of the damage and repair costs.

Glad you had found the problem! Im remembering those days preparing the motorcycle for the track, making wholes in the bolts and using safety wire to secure them just in case.... How tempting now.... But i guess, just be sure to use thread locker and adjust those bolts per specification. Or to check they are adjusted properly.
