As Daryl and Terry suggested, I will be replacing ALL the ring gear bolts in this setup.

I did find one other noteworthy item, though, after I posted. I looked closely at the hole in the ring gear and the corresponding hole in the diff case, and they are in perfect shape (not wallowed out at all), but they are not perfectly aligned with each other. I don't know if the ring gear has slipped a little bit relative to the case, or if it has always been this way. I rebuilt this differential in the early '90's (with some help), but I don't recall this particular detail. Maybe I will learn more when I remove the rest of the bolts.
