teraflex rear disk brake question

I am doing the teraflex rear disk conversion on a 8.25 and have a question about the 4 bolts on the axle which the brakes mount to. teraflex calls them t bolts and their kit comes with new ones (says not to use them on the 8.25). but the existing ones seem too short. I would just use the new ones since they are longer but the shoulder is not splined like the old ones. if you guys have found longer bolts, where did you find them?? thanks in advance.
 
Most just grind down regular bolts,they really dont do much as far as strength is concerned.
 
I just had a few beers and then it dawned on me...those bolts just hold the brakes on, nothing else.....the new bolts should be plenty strong.

Good point...
