That idler wheel shaft is one piece, so when you tighten the rear idler wheel bolts up make sure you have a hold of both at the same time (I usually do it with 2 people, makes it easier) to get both ends tight. If you don't do this you won't get the bolts tight b.c the shaft will be spinning. A bad bearing may possibly spin the bolts off if they weren't tight enough in the first place. Check you wheels though for sure, loosen track off, remove bolts then wheels. If the bearings feel even a little bit tight or not smooth, replace them. Hope this helps.
