Judging by the taper on the bolts and the flutes on the nuts, the nuts are single-use parts. Tightening them will likely be worse than leaving them as-is, but keep an eye out for them loosening further.
Almost all of the nuts and bolts are listed as single use. I was thinking of making a list of what I need and ordering new everything. In the meantime, leave as-is through the first event, check everything against where things are now and then go from there. I still need to align it and there's a thing I need to do on the front end that involves loosening, pushing, pulling, and re-tightening to get some extra camber. I can't do that until I can set front toe immediately after.

Still pissed off, though.
