It is not recommended to reuse the bolts, but saying that ive always reused them with Loctite. Can't see how you can mix them up. They are all the same size. Unless you had vibration before disassembling, there should be none now unless you've fitted them wrong
Trust me I am a retired Doctor and lecturer at Oxford University of Structural and Mechanical/Electrical engineering.
May the shaft be with you
