i just did the same thing, the axles actually went back in quite easily. But i did use a rubber hammer to just make sure everything was in snug.

put the axle nut on the end and hit with the rubber mallet

Just keep at it. It will pop back in.

I'd get a rubber footed C-Clamp or something to clamp onto the hub and then hammer it in with a more direct strike.

the axle has a little clip by the splines that can keep it from sliding in, hardtoexplain but if you look at the clip as you slide it in youll see if its hung up and not letting the axle in.
