Finally tracked myself a spax RSX kit down . Going to fit it tomoro and was just wondering if there is anything that needs to be renewed when i fit them? (already have gmax shocks and springs on). I know the haynes manuel says to replace certain bolts and nuts but i went to vaux to get some and he said its not something he would stock and that they probably wouldnt need refitting

If they do where can i get them from?

Many thanks Gavin

Even though haynes recommend to replace the bolts, its not a necessity.

You should. The threads on the bolts are tapered to lock the nuts on. So it's worth renewing them
