Replace axle nuts for 5 lug swap

[Shadowhunter]

Hey guys, I am doing a 5 lug front and rear hub swaps. I am wondering if it is a good idea to change out the axle/spindle nuts when doing this. I know when I had my Integra they said to replace it when changing out axles, but that was also because you had to crush the nut in on its self so it did not move. I noticed these are made out of the same material so I am wondering what is proper procedure, change em? Keep em? Thanks in advance for your help.

reuse them they will be fine, just replace the cotter pin.

According to the FSM, you don't have to replace the wheel bearing locknuts.

If you want to spend the money, there's no harm in buying new hardware.
