front shock bolts?????

ok so i have DJM upper and lower control arms, the lower ones came with the bolt for the shock to mount to, and the frame has the original bolt for the top of the shock. well the shocks are kyb gas shocks from early classics and they came with a new bolt to go into the control arm. well the shocks rubber bushing in the bottom of the shock is to small and the bolt wont go through, i have tried to press the bushing out and the rubber and the sleeve came out together. has anyone ran into this problem, or have any ideas? i hope so, thanks
chris

I would say to contact Early Classics personally and ask them. Mayby they accidently sent you the wrong shocks.

You have the wrong shocks. You probably have the ones for the back. The right KYB shock will fit perfectly. They did on my 3/4 ton '69 C20.
