Default track bar install problems

so im putting in a new moog track bar and cant get it to line up to fit properly, I have it bolted in loosely on the bolt side but cant get the ball joint side to fit, I also have a sky jacker lift and it has a drop bracket where the ball joint goes, was gonna try and take that off to try and line it up better and reposition it but it looks like a pain and I don't have big enough sockets for it, is there any ideas on what I can do to get it to line up, thanks

I just had a friend lean on the side of the truck. It actually moves fairly easily.

What HeyYou said or have them turn the steering wheel a touch. It'll move the truck side to side.
