yeah man... just spend the 125.00 bux and get them now. Knowing that they are in there and doing their job is good insurance. The stock bolts are how old now?
Below is a pic of my main bolt that broke off after one torque. I don't remember the exact amount.. but it was NOT the final torque stage on it.
