The original thread is 'special'. Unfortunately the parts list does not mention this!
It's the shank (plain section under bolt head) that's important as it should fit the shock bore a sliding fit to make the joint design work correctly regarding load and stress distribution. One side located by that bore/shank, the other by threads in the body. It's a half floating, if you like, joint design that utilises low bolt torque to stop it coming undone, but with very high shear resistance to avoid failure.
