im in the process of putting my bottom end back together and i heard from someone that the nuts holding the conrods to the crankshaft journals are a single use and should be replaced.
is this the case/ is it worth doing? thanks again |

Rule of thumb on reusing bolts is, if it's torqued and thats it, reuse.........but, if they are torqued, then turned 'X' amount of degrees, then do NOT reuse.
