Do you have to replace all bolts when replacing your CV axle? I see where it say the axle bolt is a stretch bolt and must be replaced. But do not see where it says 6x10mm triple square bolts on the inner joint-flange are stretch bolts and need replacing. Matter of fact is says, remember, torque specs assume clean threads - rusty bolts/threads will give a false torque reading talking about the 6x10mm triple square bolts at 57 ft-lb. So that sounds like to me these bolts are used again and not replaced. Also seems like the torque spec for the axle bolt is high 140 ft-lb +180o turn. Needing installed today 2/19 already removed.
Thanks in advance for your replies!
