Anybody know if you can reuse the differential cover bolts on the 7.5", and if not where to get them? My cover is nothing but rust, so I'm replacing it with a new cover, but I can't seem to find a set of new bolts for the 7.5, only the 8.8. Also can the same bolts be interchanged between the 8.8 aand 7.5? Thanks everyone!
 
Yes, you can reuse them if you wish. If you get an aftermarket cover/girdle (looks very cool) they come with allens or studs.
 
My local hardware store carries a decent assortment of shouldered bolts. You can also just get regular bolts with washers. You can also clean the old ones up and re-use them, they're not torqued down very hard.

I never checked if they'll swap from 8.8" to 7.5"
