H&R Spring install question

So the dealership that was going to install my springs said the bolts are one time use and that the replacement ones are not available currently from Ford. For those that have installed these, is that correct or do I need to try a different installer? I haven't read of anyone else having that issue

Dealership legal stuff. Any TTY (torque to yield) bolts are technically one time use...I’d say virtually every one of us that’s installed springs has reused the bolts. Hell...alignment shops aren’t replacing them when they loosen them again to do their work.

Thanks - so it sounds like I need to find another shop if they don't want to reuse them
