I am thinking I do not have the right tools to force it back where I need it to go. Anybody done this before with success

I actually just did this a few weekends ago... I had removed the leaf spring on the passenger side completely to replace bushings, paint it, and replace the u bolts. When I went to jack the axle back up into place, it didn’t line up quite right. It was pretty easy to muscle it back into place to line up correctly, though. It didn’t take any special tools or anything
