New flywheel bolts OEM

Trooper input shaft pilot berring
New clutch preasure plate bolts OEM
Isuzu Rodeo Clutch master cylinder (1998-2001)
Isuzu Rodeo clutch pedal assembly (98-01)
Isuzu Trooper clutch slave cylinder (1998-2001)
Clutch hydraulic lines.
Trooper computer (manual tranny model 98-00)
Trooper shifter boots

Reccomended... New rear main seal
Optional...Trooper manual tranny exhaust system

Feel free to ask questions or comment...
I had my old tranny rebuild twice, and then swapped in another auto tranny to have the torque converter burn up in under a year, so I too am done with the auto tranny and have already bought a '99 Manual Trooper and it is sitting in my driveway. Couple of questions:

Why the new flywheel bolts? The old ones look brand new still.
Why the new clutch pressure plate bolts?
I am assuming I can still order the new clutch set/shaft pilot bearing/rear main seal from IsuzuParts.com, correct? Thanks in advance, can't wait to have this done.
