In the end you got lucky it was just hardware that was damaged. However if it was greater I a certain you will feel differently. Just think if you were on the highway and you car broke down and you were rear end. There are so any different scenario's that could have played out. But in the end it was poor workmanship and incorrect hardware and that is something that DSE should be made aware of. How any others are out there with the same problem.
DSE is known for the quality and there quality control procedures and it looks like they might need to update/modify the QC procedures for their vendors. Especially when it could have caused catastrophic damage to your rear end.
Case in point many years ago I had a ring gear swap on my lifted Toyota and the tolerances were set to tight. Which caused the differential to overheat on my drive from Chicago to St Louis. Which smoke the center section, ring & pinion, all bearings and axles. In the end it cost me about $2,000 to repair the damage and a day in court ( yes I won ). So like I said you got lucky.
