The changing of the bolts is a safety issue on a critical application.
Basic theory is : When a bolt is tightened to the max, it will stretch a fraction. When the bolt is removed it will stay stretched If the old bolt is then re-used it is likely to stretch again.This in theory may result in a weaker bolt that is just within its yeild zone & in theory is more likely to fail ( Shear ) More science than that involved but that is the basic theory ![]()
