MAXX IT OUT
RUNS AGAIN
What kind of twins set up? On the 04.5 and newer the head bolts are pretty good, but they will not last forever under lots of beating.

Not really a good idea. $550 for studs and some time to install is pretty cheap insurance IMO. You can lift a head on stock fuel/air, so why chance it?
BTW, headbolts for all years Dmax are the same last time I checked.

The 2001 and some of the 2002 had weaker bolts and would blow easy. They are all the same bolt, just quality had gone up, so the newer ones are stronger.

I am not saying it's not a good idea, if it was me personally would put them as well as a set of valve springs. Most people don't want to pull the heads unless they have to, but you can do it with the factory heads gaskets and just put them in one at a time.
