reusing ubolts

[88xjchief]

Can I get away with using the old ubolts? I cant get new ones until tuesday.

If your going to replace them ASAP then Id say yes. But make sure you replace them ASAP.

[88xjchief]

Im going to replace them as soon as I can. They came off very easily and none broke.

[crosbike]

in reused mine and ran them for 2 years with no issues. i have new ones now but i say do it.

[DrThunder]

Most likely babies will start melting if you do that.


























Seriously, ive never bought new ones.

they do stretch... its 'recommended' that you tighten them only once.

i was considering getting one myself, are they any good? i'm a little worried about the axle wrappage it might cause though

I cant reuse my ubolts. D35 ubolts dont fit a 8.25. Plus I think my drive shaft is to long now.
