2003 Volvo S60 SubFrame Problem, Need Help

Hi all!

I may have a big issue... Funny Story, I was hearing noise and squeaking in my suspension. I was thinking it was my control arms and I even purchased them. Although, while driving I just heard a clank and sound of something hitting the the ground. I made it home and only noticed my power steering seemed a bit tough to turn when I accelerated. I took it to a shop and they showed me that both my rear sub frame mounts were hanging completely off. The 6 safety screws were completely gone, like they were never installed. I was able to get the screws replaced for free, thanks to a generous shop. They told me that I would need a welding and a bunch of other stuff, I then took it to another shop and they said my bearing looked like it fell out. I don't know whats wrong but I have these pictures...

I'm hoping its just the bearings. My car drives now but I need to fix it. Any ideas what is wrong?
