So I have a pair of these arriving tomorrow...

Are the nuts at the top reusable or one shot.

Also the bottom bolt ? L322 2007 TDV8 3.6

Replace both of my rear shocks recently - all nuts and bolts are re-usable.

Whilst reusable I like replacing them when doing shocks unless I was the first and only one putting them on. I'd like to know they've not been abused by an air ratchet monkey. Considering they are only pennies (ok pounds) extra...

God tip on changing bolts etc, as they are not expensive. A while back I changed all four brake discs, getting some of the bolts out was a bloody nightmare. Censored I think someone like Geoff Capes used a breaker bar to tighten them, it was a miracle that none of them snapped.

Yes I just did thepads and disks so had to remove the calliper carrier bracket. The two bolts at the back were ok to remove, however they had stretched so clearly had been reused. I bought some more from local dealer, LR, in their wisdom, only sell them in bags of 10 at £36 a bag Laughing L322 2007 TDV8 3.6

Definitely a good idea to sell the excess. I’m sure they would go to those not willing to buy bulk.
