Differential bolts on an '82

Hi folks,

I recently picked up an '82 Corvette differential for use in my street rod.  Upon disassembly I find that the bolts holding the carrier to the support are practically stripped and use strange bolts that appear to be self-tapping.  Is this common?  What is the normal procedure for repair?  It appears that they can be easily tapped to 12mm.

Thank you!
Gary

Never mind.  I just drilled them and tapped them to 12mm.
