Default Removed Passenger Side Radius Arm and I-Beam to Replace Bushings, Cannot Figure Out H

The radius arm and axel pivot bushings were in need of replacement so I dropped the whole passengers side radius arm and I beam for better access to press the old bushing and sleeve out and replace it with MOOG bushings. For the life of me I cannot figure out how to angle the whole assembly back in where it belongs. The bracket where the axel pivot bushing mounts to is closed off on the bottom so slipping it in from that angle is impossible. If i put that axel pivot bushing in first, the radius arm will be 2 or 3 inches off to the outside of the hole in the bracket. If I mount the radius arm first, there is no angle to get the axel pivot bushing up and over to slide into the bracket.

If anyone has a tutorial, ideas or tips/tricks it would be greatly appreciated! Im pulling my hair out with this one!
