This is my first major (I consider this major) DIY upgrade I've done on my car, and that is to replace the passenger side lower control arm. Its been a pain, but I've been learning a lot. I had to jack up the engine carefully to get enough clearance, and I've placed the LCA in on the front and back bolts. However, I can't get the stupid ball joint pin to actually go into the steering knuckle. I've tried hammering with a dead hammer, using a jack, it still won't go in.

I don't think I moved or messed up the axle/CV since when I put the wheel back on, it seems to fit fine.
Maybe I should just drop the car on the wheel and see if the weight of the car will push it in?
