New Shock Problem - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Just got my KYB Excel-G's in today and I tried to bolt them to the top shock mount just to have them in place once the other parts are here.

Well, I have a CPP relocation kit for the 5 inch drop I'm doing, and the bolt from the CPP kit is just a tad too big for the metal sleeve that goes in the bushing on the shock.

What should I do? Without it, the shock is too loose, but with it the bolt wont go in at all.

Also - do I need to break in the shocks in any specific way? Or just rocknroll?
