Heaven, I was waiting all day to see if anyone would reply; I remember having to get new bolts two years ago, and the 1 1/4" inch were just an RCH too long, but the 1" didn't give me enough threads to feel comfortable with. I bit the bullet and went with 1" though. Two years now and many miles later, no problems.

Heaven, well, it was two years ago, but the bolt length was 1 1/2" too long, 1 1/4" not quite long enough, which I ended up using anyway. I found one of the GM bolts tonight when I got home, and it is 1 3/8". Bolts are the same for front and rear.
Sorry for the confusion (old timers disease)
