It is recommended/ordered that the caliper bolts are replaced due to the torque patch on the threads (a form of thread locker). If the bolts are in good shape, use a bit of Loc-tite red and torque them down per the manual spec. For removal, using air tools is fine, but when it comes to putting them back in, go manual with a torque wrench! In short, get it right.
