Default RV10 wing bolts

I took the wings off to get the good ship home and now need to put humpty back together. Is there any reason to not reuse the wing bolts?

Default RV10 wing bolts

The wing bolts are close tolerance bolts, which means the plating on them is thinned by the fact of installing (and removing) them. They are not that expensive, I would use new bolts.

I would inspect the bolts and consult Vans. Highly likely you can reuse them. They are not stressed like a connecting rod bolt!!
