need to be right or the bearings aren,t stressed right. the non nylocs are 207ftlb as there the ones i use with the built in washer. better as there reuseable.

yup, you're only meant to use them all once, the split ones deform when you fit them and aren't as good a fit the next time.

hmm interesting, do you know if reno sell them seperately part number etc, might be worth stocking up. wouldnt trust the gsf ones on my cup car as normally they bolts/nuts they use in kits are crap.
