I had this problem as I wanted to get the old bolt back in just to hold the arm in place so I can drive the J up onto the ramps tomorrow and try again.
I have an idea of getting a piece of wood dowelling that is just the right length and diameter to push fit the spacers over the ends and hold them in place in the chassis mount. Then once I have slid the guard over the top and aligned the holes, I should be able to knock the dowel through with the bolt.
