I can confirm that my differential had a 14mm bolt. I assumed it was 12mm. I stopped at a mom and pop hardware store on my way home today to see if they sold 14mm bolts. Most of the automotive stores only carried 12mm. I got lucky. I planned on tapping the differential tonight and ordering a new bushing but it looks like all I need is new bushing. Regardless I plan on replacing all the differential bushings and replace the differential cover gasket.
