No Limit rear shock relocator trouble?

[TexasLS1]

Hey guys, I'm having some trouble installing these and I'm about to lose my mind (you know how ya get frustrated and get tunnel vision, and need to walk away and have someone else look at it since you're not thinking clearly anymore lol).

So I've reinstalled the factory trailing arms along with member way2lo2's u bolts and 2" blocks. I got the new u bolts through the axle brackets, blocks, trac bar brackets, and trailing arms without a problem, but the holes on the shock brackets are about 1/4" too close together and the u bolts will not go through my No Limit brackets. Has anyone else had trouble installing these or am I just clueless? It looks like I'm going to have to ream out the holes on these, but I'm feeling like it's me doing something wrong rather than an issue with the brackets -- seems like a lot of guys have used these without a hitch.

Any help would be appreciated before I act a fool and screw up some nice brackets!!
