Caliper bolts

They are not torque to yield. The book tells you to use new ones because of the encapsulated loctite on the bolts: the little microbeads break when you use the bolt. I just use blue loctite.
Do I know everything? Probably not. Will you ever know the exact right answer to this question? No. If you need the extra peace of mind, buy new bolts, but if not then definitely use loctite.
