Hi, I have a question regarding the stock differential bolts. I am currently using BMR diff bushings and decided to reinstall the stock bolts

Just to confirm, do the two long bolts go in the rear and the short one in the front, or is it the other way around?

Thanks

Correct, mounting ears by fuel tank aren't as thick as the ears on the differential cover. If you went through the trouble to install the bushings (Lockouts?) why didn't you upgrade the bolts, too? Or better yet, do it right an use through bolts so the shear loading is crossing through the shank of the bolt instead of the threaded portion?
