Well that changes things entirely. 3 ring or 4 ring knurled bolts? 3 rings requires rod replacement should the bolts not be in spec. 4 is OK to replace just the bolts

Also don't forget to do the 60Nm/44 lb-ft check test. After you do the 90 deg. tighten to each bolt, set the wrench to 44 lb-ft and mark the bolt heads relative to the rod body. If the bolt turns in the rod, or you can't get to 44 lb-ft "click", the rod has to be replaced.
