Steve,

All three are the same as far as I'm aware.

7/16 UNF x 3.1/4" long

See my Dropbox for the full list of bolts

If your changing the diff bushes, I would be really interested to know how you get the top rear bolt out - it's something that I've got to do over the winter and it looks a nightmare to get it there.

After removing the diff getting the old bush outbid a pita. Drilled the rubber out using angle drill then used sportmotives bush tool to ( 3 ft bar ground to point and a big hammer) to remove the bush

Didn't need to cut grooves on the bush sleeve

Took about an hour to get the bush out . But it is messy and fiddly
