Issues modeling a stretcher in Creo Parametric 2.0

Hello, I am trying to model a stretcher in creo. the stretcher is composed of two poles attached by a two pairs of spread bars with a bracket in the middle. This is so that the stretched can fold up for transport. Each spread-bar has two pin connections that I modeled using two coincident constraints, one on the center axis of the hole on the bar to the center axis of the hole on the stretcher, and one from the surface of the spread-bar to the surface of the bracket.

This has worked fine as I've continued building out from the original bracket but now that I need to connect the final spreadbar to the tube using a pin connection I am encountering issues. It won't let me place two pin constraints on the bar at once. I have included an images of the connection here:
