Upper ball joint boot

[72tutone]

Guys, I have what I hope is a simple question. This is a pic of the upper control arm and ball joint upside down. What you are seeing is the dust boot. Does the dust boot have to fit all the way down till it meets the control arm? I greased it hoping it would slide down some and even tried a 42mm socket to drive it down and it isn't going.
These are raysbestos prof grade ball joints if that helps.

I have put in quite a lot of ball joints and usually a socket and hammer will drive it down but occasionally one just won't fit right. Usually as long as it seals on the end of the ball joint and doesn't let any dirt/water in I will let it go but if it won't I try to sand the end of the ball joint or get another one.
