Default Sway bar came with wrong bolts!?!?!

Ok, so I just installed a TRD sway bar. The lower end link bolts (for those of you who have the sway bar) weren't the right size. I had to c-clamp a ratchet to the work bench and use my biggest wrench (almost 2 feet) to FORCE the nuts onto the bolt. the nuts DESTROYED the threads on the bolt and it got so hot from the friction that the nylon "locking" part of the nut melted off on one of the nuts... I finally managed to get it all together because Im incredibly stubborn and knew I would have to wait for new parts anyway. It took me almost 4 hours to get it all together because of this bull. Has anyone else had this problem?
