Thrust Bearings Dont Fit. HELP!

I am putting together a motor to swap into another jeep and here's my problem. I am using the block from a 1997 Cherokee. I ordered a crank from a 4.2 wrangler casting #3727. And the rods for the same vehicle. I got these from autozone. The crank was the high performance one they offered. I ordered the main and rod bearings for a 97 jeep cherokee. Problem is. The thrust bearings (the ones at the back of the block that keep the crank in place) dont fit. All the rest of the main bearings do but the thrust bearings are just a hair to wide to fit around the crank. What is the problem here? Need some serious help because I am need this motor done soon.
