Torsion Bar Problem!?
Oldmanmopar I have the bottom one in your photo... The one that looks thicker, and I do believe you got it right because I did push the pivot shaft the right amount in, that little area isn't suppose to be touching the bushing but the k member, if I push the pivot shaft in it would stick out in to the torsion bar socket.
I'm certain that those parts are right for my car because It had those in it when I bought it, and the suspension was on just fine... Then I took it apart to rebuild the suspension and then I ran into this issue. I do believe it is the strut bars that are preventing it from going in 100% I might install the strut bars last.
