Default Re use lifter retaining links LT1

Is there any reason to not re use the lifter retaining plates and links for new lifters and a cam? Ive heard you should replace lifter trays on LS motors but I believe the LT has only these retaining links? I dont see any trays down there.

No real reason to replace the dog bones unless they're hammered. The tray can lose some of its springyness but otherwise shouldn't need to be either.
