So I am guessing the halfshaft was already removed in my car
by the previous owner and somebody put the wrong bolt there...
Mine is too short to make any difference in the bearing seat!

BTW - is this really such a good idea to put any pressure with
a pointy object like this bolt on the bearing???? I am quite stunned.
Anyway - my halfshaft bearing seems to be hold in place by the
snap ring alone now... the bolt is there but it does not do a thing :-)
I hope I am not asking for any disaster to happen...
