Yes I was talking about a tractor disc on the 3 point hitch as just an example.

It sounds like the bolts in question have "teeth" on them much like lug studs do to keep them from rotating in the shackles. If this is the case then you will likely have to pull the shackle plates off by removing the two nuts and pulling the "set" (two bolts and the connecting shackle plate) then find and clean out the holes that seem to be plugged. While they are off you may be able to determine if they are not positioned with the hole facing the correct direction, press or drive them out, then rotate as desired and press or drive them back in.
