Bolt & Nut sizes

Hi Guys,
 
I am rebuilding a MKII diff and need some help on bolt sizes.
 
1.   I need to know what size bolts are used to bolt the axle shafts into the diff housing.  M12x1.5 I think!
2.   What size nuts are used to fix the diff head into the diff housing
 
Many thanks,
 
Matt

    I am assuming the nuts to hold in the diff are M12 too.
