7.5 and 7.625 are left hand threads and I believe are 7/16 fine thread. The other bolts are for a 10 bolt 8.2" gear in early 64-78 chevy's with 3/8 fine threads.

Believe it of not the stockers are a better grade of bolt the what is offered throught the cheap import kits. Just clean the stock ones and inspect the threads, I reuse 95 percent of all ring gear bolts on rears I build.
