I only use them on one thing at once... does that count ?

davidlandy:
that £40 probably aint that bad given the sizes of some of those. The A frame ones to chassis in particular. And remember these will be the spot on correct ones  

you'll probably spend £40 in time, diesel , postage and phone calls tracking them down from fasteners providers....and fit slightly wrong sizes and you'll notice it.

Been there , done that etc...

littlepow:
It's not just the size that matters.

Don't forget the bolts strength and the materials there made from, also count.

"how many people only use them once"
Would you leave a locking washer off ! Nylocks lock the nut and once used have had a thread cut so are effectively normal nuts. I used to work on the trains and in the aircraft industry and all nylocks removed were scrap. I would use one in a non safety critical instance but not on suspension. I dont fancy having a radius arm pop out at 60mph and jack the vehicle over !  :shock:
