Hey, I’m a “newb” so if I’m not posting this in the right place or not following a set protocol, please educate me and steer me straight.
In my searching for the correct sizes and pitch for the stamped BRONCO bolts/screws, I was able to locate a couple of posts, one for sure was on this forum, the other I don’t recall because I could not find it again.
Anyhoo, neither of the posts were all-inclusive, so here’s what I have concluded:
° Large screws on HD modular front bumper are M8 x 1.25 x 33mm long, with a Torx Plus (TP) 40 (TP40) internal socket head.
° Medium screws at hood/windshield valance are M6 x 1.00 x 26mm long (one of these is situated right behind the antenna lug), with a TP30 internal socket head.
° Smaller screws on side mirror mounts are M6 x 1.00 x 22mm, with a TP25 internal socket head.
I purchased the Neiko socket bit set off of Amazon. Linked here:

It contains all you see in the attached pics. It worked with no issues.
NOTE: The TP internal sockets are SIX LOBE or POINTS, with blunt points, not sharper like the regular Torx.
Also, on my Outer Banks, I am planning to use stainless tamper resistant, Torx Security (TS), FIVE LOBE, PENTALOBE screws, because my Bronco sleeps outside at night. I found some in the UK, listed on eBay, linked here:

But, I also found them at Fastenright, linked here:

I hope this helps other newbs trying to find their way to usable, concise information.
Cheers all!
