I got these in the mail today and noticed one of the bolts was damaged, wondering if I could still use this one or if it's safe to use it? Note: I did buy them used.

It would be preferable to pound and undamaged one out of your stock suspension and replace the broken one. It broke it one place, its possibly weakened in another.

+1, fix it, very easy. Replace that top hat with a different one if you have to.

Swapping top-hats would probably be easier/faster than replacing the stud like I suggested.
