Drop leaf install

I'm installing 3" drop leaf springs on my truck and they are obviously marked front for the front side. My issue is the shackle bolt will not fit in the rear bushing of the leaf, But it will fit in the "Front" side bushing, and the "Back" side will fit the bolt in the Front of the truck.

Is there any chance they marked these wrong when making them or do i need to modify the bolt on the shackle in the back?

Thanks in advance, oh its a 89' B2200 Ext. cab. Truck is kinda apart want it back together by monday, so please respond lol.

Well i just popped the bushings out and swapped sides so they would fit right. Rides right so i suppose all is well.
