I would replace any/all that you take out. Dont reuse, its to cheap of an item not to change.

I got mine from Kragen. Not a good set, but does the job. I would suggest taking out the cotter pins and bringing it to kragen or autozone and try to match them. I once tried to use the old one, and it is impossible to put em back on. But ALWAYS replace
