        No don't do that, insert a new copy, then right click and select "Make Unique", that will give you a new component called for example "Front post#1"

        Double click it and edit to your hearts content, you will only effect the copy not the original. Any other components you insert of the copy will then be linked but not to the original.

        See all of my SketchUp models here.
