Subframe bolt size

[Ingo D. Rautenberg]

Chuck,

THAT I'm not sure of.  You'd have to check the Bentley on that one.
Personally, if it's in good shape, I don't see why you couldn't reuse it
(did it in my old urq).  Only had to replace when I didn't tighten properly
(as in with wheels/weight on ground) and one literally fell out.  I'd argue
that while crucial, they are not as prone to ear and tear like ball joint
pinch bolts and the like.  And certainly not stretch bolts like those head
bolts.  But I'd consult the Bentley to be safe.

-Ingo
