Are you using 66 ft pounds as a standard for the size of the bolt?

Shawn,
If you are comfortable doing this work it should be an easy fix If you are not then take it to Ford for warranty
If you do it then yes try to reshape the bracket. Shouldnt be to hard to do. 66 ft lbs is what Ford calls for these bolts and the bolts for the CHF. If you havent done the chf yet now would be the time since you are under the coach.
Remember to use blue loctite.
And like Dave just replied if you can find POLY LUBE add a little to the sway bar and slide the bushing into place (over the lube) Only use poly lube!!!! Do both side since you need to torque the other side as well.
Good luck and let us know how you did.
Jerry
