if you have some narrow tipped vice grips you could use that to keep the nut from spinning.

sounds like you might have over tightened your bolts and broke the nuts loose. once its replaced or fixed just snug it down. even with a heavy head wind at 70+ MPH it wont come off.

Does anyone have a picture of it off.. i dont remember what it looks like and what bolt i need to hold from spinning

dont hold the bolt, hold the nut on the inside of the j-hook. i have no clue how youre going to get to it but thats what you have to hold on to.

heres a pic of what im talking about;
