Upper control arm bolt

Hey guys, first time posting. I put a 2" lift on my daughter's 94 Country 2wd. I made the mistake of removing the bolt at the upper control arm and the axle shifted/twisted on me. Is there a trick to get it back in, can't get leverage with a prybar. Thanks for any info!!
 
A come-along or ratchet strap works best.
 
I typically use a big monkey wrench on the axle tube and my floor jack on the end of the handle. This allows fine enough control that you can usually get it perfect and just slide the bolt in.

This is what I've generally used if manipulating the axle with a jack isn't enough.
