When doing struts, strut mount bearings, and control arm bushings, will I need to replace any self-locking nuts, or can all the nuts and bolts be reused if they are in good shape? If any should be replaced with new ones, I want to have them on hand before I start the job. Bentley is always warning against re-using certain nuts and bolts.
