Are the exact same shape and size as the lod ones? If not, there's your problem.
Also, it is very common for ultra-cheap (under $90 and guaranteed to squeak) pads to be poorly machined. They may be slightly too big and you can return them as defective to exchange them for another set which may or may not fit better. Alternatively, you can grind a bit off so they fit. You can also just use them as is and expect them to wear rapidly, overheat, and destroy the rotors.
You might have corrosion built up on your holders/brackets/whatever you call them. Clean this off.
Also consider any possible problems with abutment clips, rattle clips, or wear indicators that just don't fit properly and need to be replaced or repositioned.

You are having trouble bleeding brakes on a 1989 F250 2 wheel drive you have installed a new master cylinder that has been bench bled you bought a expensive hand bleeder but can't get all the air out?
Bleeding brakes is one of the most frequent problems here. Some master cylinders need to be level on the vehicle to bleed. If it is reasonably level then bleed the brakes this way. Get a piece of hose that will just fit over the bleeder screw. One end over the screw and the other end in a container with enough brake fluid in it to cover the end of the hose. Starting with the back passenger wheel, slowly pump the brake. Run almost a full master of fluid through, stop before the master goes dry. Drivers back, front passenger, front drivers. Doing it this way makes it impossible for air to get back into the system.

Jack up the F250's front end. Remove the wheel. Remove the locking assembly, this will be different depending on which assembly is used (skip this step it the F250 has the slide on type rotor.) Unbolt the brake caliper and swivel it out of the way. The rotor was either unbolted during the locking hub removal, or it is the slide on type that will now just pull off.

Look under the vehicle at the rear area -there should be an 'equalizing" valve for the rear brakes - secure this valve in fully open position and try bleeding rear brakes
