If I remember my reading, the late, great Carroll Smith suggested that
nylocs can be reused as long as they cannot be turned by hand.  However,
they are cheap enough that I prefer to not re-use them.  I tend to source my
grade 8 stuff from McMaster-Carr http://www.mcmaster.com/.  I you so desire,
you can also get grade 5 locknuts from them (which are much cheaper than the
Grade 8 stuff).
