Default Installing lower shock mount (strut rod shaft)

How do I seat the strut rod shaft to the spindle support arm? I have approximately 1/8" gap to go and feel I am putting way to much load on the strut rod shaft nut to pull the rod to meet the spindle support.

Put some grunt into moving the trailing arm over to make it fit. Dennis
