porkchop here-

so i'm going to be posting quite a bit and more than likely they are amateur questions so i apologize in advance.

i'm trying to attach my 3 speed column shifter to my steering column using 1/4-20 bolts see attached. For whatever reason they seem hard to thread in and i don't want to strip or damage anything. Are these the right bolts? if so is it okay just to spray the threads to help guide them?
