Help:
Do I need a re-install kit to reuse my old sensors? I am taking it from my 16in (style 156) and putting it into 17's (style 157).

There are some seals that are technically not supposed to be reused due to possible leaking issues (although many do reuse them with no problems). The rebuilt kits are available through me for $4.50 per sensor if you'd like to be on the safe side.

Ditto. Not that you do necessarily need to replace them... but it is recommended. These are wear and tear items. They are exposed to heat and all the elements, so the seals/gaskets will break down over time. You would rather be safe then sorry.
