hi I'm going to replace front wishbone on ford galaxy 2005 tdi,just wondered should you fit new bolts ,and has anyone put a how to guide on here ,doneit on other cars before ,but always helps getting info thanks in advance dave

I didnââ,¬â,,¢t replace the bolts when I did mine. Not seen a how to guide but it is pretty much same as other cars. If I remember correctly the bottom ball joint was tight to pop and the rear of arm was a wrestle to get in and line up.

No, you don't have to replace either of the bolts if they are in good condition.

They are not single-use stretch bolts, but you do have to torque and then angle tighten because of the bushes.
