that's the beauty of theirs....:TU:
what if there was thrust washing/bearing failure, and the crank and rods turned black?

sounds like you may have more to worry about then re-using rod bolts....:eek:

but yes ARP fasteners can be re-used.
they are shot peened and that is why you buy them. other wise just get oem. so yes, reuse them :)
rods are ok, and I give the crank to an engine shop. The bolts are 10miles old. The engine shop did something wrong with the rod bearing on the 3. cylinder!
well you do know that the rod bolts are supposed to be torqued and relaxed several times before assembly? and ARP has there own lube to make a more consistent co efficient if friction
i love arp bolts! they're a must for our d series motors! ;) well, all motors that you're gonna race!!!! ;)
