you have assembled the lower part incorrectly, the rubber ring goes in first, the hard donut cushion goes in second, the steel washer, then the through bolt. the top bushing also has a oval slot, it has to be rotated to the correct orientation to drop into the subframe.

I have a 2005 all wheel drive Astro van will 88 - 99 cab mount bushings on a Chevy truck work on my sub frame of my van?
