Metal Film resistors for TX board too large - danner - 08-05-2017

Sorry if this is a stupid question but I purchased my resistors, etc., from Mouser. I was assembling one of my TX boards today and ran across a small problem. The resistors Mouser sent me are too big. I ordered the exact values of 3K Ohm and 1K ohm, 1/4watt, 1% metal film resistor but the component they sent is too large.

Can anyone assist me on where to buy the specific part that will fit in the space provided?



TIA

Is this the correct part? Do I install it standing up instead of flat against the board?

Never mind. I found the lengths listed on mouser. I've only ever purchased regular plain jane resistors from radio shack. Never had to order a variety of different types online, LOL. Got it covered. Thanks.
