Wrong strut rod bushings?

I went to install my new poly strut rod bushings today in my 74 Charger, but the hole in the K frame is roughly 1/4" smaller in diameter than the insertable part of bushing. The hole is roughly 1.16-1.17" in diameter and the bushings are 1.4". I don't have a pre '73 frame I can easily double check, but given the dimensions, could I have gotten bushings for an older mopar or different body perhaps? Is anyone familiar with what would have the 1.4" hole? This will bug me until Monday when I can phone and inquire.

Edit: My K frame turned out to be a '73. The strut rod bushing diameter was increased in late '73, the strut rods were also different after this date. Good info to know for the 73/74 guys.
