Default 96 civic sedan front lower contorl arm bolt???

The bolt in the pic i noticed when changing my rotors and pads , that it will not tighten all the way. Its very loose.tried tighting it and it just spins. Would it be cause the bushing is bad? Help would be apprecited

Check the back side of the bolt. Quite likely it has a welded nut and the weld has broken free allowing it to spin freely and not tighten.

your tierod boot is ripped you'll want to replace that more then likely a stripped nut if there's some bolt still sticking out put a 2nd nut on for the time being, I've done that in the past till I got it replaced/fixed.
