Default Is this right?

I've been searching all over is this right? Slide the track bar into the bracket at the axle housing and insert the 18mm bolt through the hole. Place the tab nut on the backside and tighten down the bolt with the 18mm socket. Tighten down the bolt on the top of the track bar, as well. Tighten the bolts as tight as possible, and then loosen them by 1/4 turn to allow the bushings to move freely..........................................on ly thing is the pin does not lock in groove...

After installing the new track bar, you will need an alignment. This is why your truck's steering is off.
