I.e., was there a /boot/grub* visible in the filesystem when you ran grub-install, and is it the same /boot/grub* that you used for the grub-mkconfig step?  Or, did you pass grub-install a --boot-directory option?  If this paragraph doesn't make any sense, let me know... 8-)

it makes perfect sense, but I made no extra options. I ran
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.conf

then you run
grub2-install --force /dev/sda

reboot, and, the 3.17 isn't there..

grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.conf
