Are you doing this on the ground or lift or jackstands?

You need to get a prybar and open the lca up so it will accept the shock. We had to do this when we replace the stock sussy with the Mugen gootness.

It takes some muscle... you do have muscles right?

I think what we did was get the shock somewhat into the LCA and then used the prybar to slightly open it up.
