Icon2 How to get this Sprint Strut bar on my 90 Accord LX?

The Sprint bar looks like the Newspeed bar. But it didn't come with any instructions.
I spend 4 hours with the front end jacked up and not, but still can't get it on.
Basically I take the 4 bolts on both sides. One UCA bolt and a strut bolt on each side. Fish in the passenger's side then try driver's side. If I don't put the bolt loosely on one side then putting on the other side then this side comes off. If I leave the bolts on then I can't get the other side on. It's about half an inch off. I guess I am not strong enough to pull it across?
How do you guys do it? Some advice? Does yours just drop in easily or you have to pull hard? I jacked the whole front end up and still can't do it.

Thanks.

Doesn't the strut bar mount on top of the shock towers with the bar going across the top of the engine?
