The carriage head bolts used to hold the tub to the floor are 5/16-18 x 1" long.

They are a 5/16-18 x 3/4" long with a washer that is staked onto the bolt, (similiar to a fender bolt).
Jim PS: When you reassembly it use a good sealant in between the surfaces that mount together to keep water out. |
