upon changing the rear diff (sierra with bolt on shafts) should i replace the driveshaft bolts??
cheers

As long as they are the correct diameter for the holes & aren't chafed my inclination would be to replace the nuts only (assuming they are self-locking). Bolts should be 8.8 or higher so shouldn't stress fracture.
No doubt someone else will confirm or otherwise.
Cheers, Pewe

Thankyou

Cap head usually means higher grade - is it 12.9?

Cap heads are usually 10.9 or 12.9 where I get bolts from.

Yes, only IKEA seem to use allen screws made from cheese.
