Suspension bolts ?

I am getting ready to do the front & rear suspension on my 2014 1le I’m doing all polyurethane BMR suspension do I need all new bolts or can I reuse the old ones?

I have removed pretty much all the suspension bolts and reused them. I'm pretty sure 99% of us do the same

There’s a lot of heated discussion on this forum about reusing the torque to yield (TTY) suspension bolts. If you choose to reuse, definitely use blue loctite on the fasteners. Also, be advised that there are a couple of nuts, not bolts, on the rear suspension that GM advises to never reuse. LCA and one other if I recall correctly. It’s best to look at the GM service manual for instructions just to be certain of what you’re getting into with the fasteners. Good luck with install.
