39 transmission bolt question
 

I’m looking for a source for bolts for the rear of my 39 transmission. Specifically I am looking for the 6 rear bearing retainer, 4 clamshell to bearing retainer, and 2 clam shell bolts. If there is no source for a “kit” can someone tell me the sizes I need?
Thanks

Bear in mind, the 4 bolts that hold the clamshell are fitted bolts.
the housing may well be worn, so new bolts will be loose, this will effect the U/joint and driveshaft concentricity with the gearbox output shaft.

Third Gen Auto in Tenn is also a possible source for the bolts. The 6 bolts to retain the rear bearing mount are drilled head for safety wire.
