8.25 ring gear bolts not fitting!

I bought a 4.56 ring and pinion set and master install kit to go with my detroit. The install kit came with ring gear bolts but the bolts are the wrong size or thread pitch so I ordered some from my local dealer and they seem to be the exact same bolts so I checked the ring gear and among some other letters and numbers it says C8.25-4.56. Are there two sets of bolts for these things?
 
I may be wrong but are,nt the bolts LEFT hand thread ?

Yes, they are. I'm an ass. I figured that out right after I posted by staring at the bolts for a bit. Feel free to let me know what a moron I am, everyone!
 
be sure and use locktite on them. Lots of locktite. You don't want them to back off. :laugh3:
Heh, if you don't make a mistake you won't learn. We ALL do things that in hindsite seems pretty, shall we say, "uninformed"!
