doing 3rd gen track bar upgrade have 911 ??

Putting the 3rd gen track bar upgrade on my truck. Got everything torn apart and starting to put new stuff back together. Question is:

The 9/16x3inch bolt that attaches the frame end of the track bar to the bracket is not even close to sliding through the bracket holes or the metal sleeve in the rubber bar bushing. The threads go through but the "shoulder" or the shank of the bolt (just beyond the threads) gets caught pretty good on the bracket and the sleeve. Does this bolt need to be pounded through the bracket and the sleeve or should it slide through easy?

Truck is down until I figure this out. I know hundred of members have done this upgrade so if someone could let me know.

Thanks

J-
