Rear Diff Ring gear bolts 8.25

[JustSumDad]

I am installing an LSD I picked up and it appears the ring gear bolts are TTY (torque to yield) aka they stretch and should not be reused.

Do I have this right?

I cant seem to find a set for the rear on this Jeep...

Thanx

In every regearing video I have ever watched, they got red loctite and got reused. Someone else with actual knowledge should respond…

I re-use them. Loctite also.

Beware the bolt size changed mid '05. 3/8" vs 10mm.

this is the kit I bought when I did my in my 2012 kk. I found that the bolts you are talking about were quite weak. I broke two if I remember correctly. I don’t have a habit of breaking bolts either. This at the very least is cheap insurance and you aren’t going to want to do this twice.
