its quite common for the bolts to come loose
i had this on most of the sierras ive had and always check them every month just to be safe
at least it happened as you pulled off and not at speeds
should be a cheap fix mate if the threads are intact
you can take teh diff out in situ but its a bitch if the top bolts have seized

lucky man
Its not that bad actually, I had one go on the motorway at 70mph on an XR4x4 - some of the bolts had worked loose and the remaining 2 sheared off with a night loud bang
