Tokico Blue install prob's

Well i went to slap my tokico blues on the rear of my project today and the passenger side went on w/o a prob, but the driverside bushing is a completly diff size than the post its stuppoto slide onto, there is probly a 16/th of an inch diff. However the passenger side fits no problem. I tried switching the sides, both fit on the pass side without a problem, both wont fit drivers side.

Is there a difference between tokico's for turbo and n/a cars? Are they specific for either side of the car? Anyone have this kind of problem?

iirc rear struts are both same, if something does not work on one side and works on other, then its more likely problem with car, not with shock
