Default Strut Install Going Terrible

ALCON,

I need some advice asap..
My first time ever install new struts. Previously I had a friend install adjustable coil overs and the car was lowered. However, I’m trying to put stock Monroe Quick Struts (PNs: 172284 & 172285) but having some trouble. The passenger side is okay but the driver side won’t align. The bottom bolt will go in the strut but the top will not. Any advice?

Jack up the knuckle and work it in.
