There's really not a lot of bolts in the rear end (outside of the
differential/axle assembly).  The rear shackle bolts are unique and probably
can't be replace with anything off the shelf.  The only thing that leaves
is:

Rear leaf mounts (6 total with lock washers and 2 nuts):

3/8"-24 x 1 1/8"
completely threaded
I tried a 1 1/2" and works fine going into the frame--sticks out further on
the nut on the external two, but workable.


FYI--Other bolts that go in the frame:

The large bolts that mount the body to the frame (4 total--2 in the front, 2
in the rear--with lock washers) are the same thread as the caliper bolts:

1/2"-20 x 1 3/8"
1 1/2" will work

Rear Bumper bolts (4 total, with lock washers)

3/8"-24 x 1"

Engine mount bolts (4 with lock washers, 2 nuts)

5/16"-24 x 3/4"

Tranny X-member mount (6 total with lock washers)

5/16"-24 x 3/4"

Rear exhaust mount (on inside of rear frame)(2 total with lock washer)

5/16"-24 x 3/4"

Front air dam, chassis harness ground, reverse lights, holes near VIN stamp
(15 total)

1/4"-28  various lengths


Hope it all helps
