I'd reuse the original bolts/nuts (w/loktite) if I saw:
1. The diameter of the shank/threads different from original.

If you bought a URO part, save yourself some trouble and get a *good* quality part instead.

they are lemforder purchased at fcp. brand seems to be ok and the hardware isn't as bad except for the heads of the bolts being torx/allen [3 of each] and the nuts being 17mm. i reused the original hardware anyway just because it looks to be better quality and with the shanks on the flex discs protruding into the yokes i think the bolts are not subject to much shearing force
