Hi guys

I believe you can reuse 300Tdi head bolts as long as they haven't stretched to much.

Does anyone have the bolt data that gives you the measurement for useable and none useable bolts?

Cheers Landy Lee

Personally I would use new, for the small relative cost of them in comparison to a decoke gasket set,
But that’s just me I like an easy life,

My dilemma is use my original genuine Land Rover or trust new Chinese cheese bolts??????

I work in engineering and have had lots of problems with inferior bolts.
