Anyone installed these bushings on the rear leaf springs and hangers? The kit I bought (#3.18108G) listed all the bushings as the same size but the rear leaf shackle eye size is smaller and the bushing won't even start into the hole. All bushings share the same part number and that looks to be correct according to the manufacture's website. Anyone else experience this? Possible solutions? Take some material off the O.D. perhaps?

Turns out the master kit is generic and there is a different kit available for 1-3/8" shackle eyes, which I have.

I think my kit was 3.2106G for my 1980 K-10. Everything fit just fine.

Found the bushings I need. Kit #3.2126 is the 1-3/8" bushings for the hangers. I took utility knife and trimmed the bushings I had and put them in so I could get the flip kit and rear diff fit in tonight and wouldn't have to wait for the correct kit to arrive. Learned something new, the bushings contain metal particles.
