Re: Needing help
Try putting a floor jack under the fender or the rad support to get them to line up. Also try having someone push or pull on the rad support to line it up.
It's normal to have to fiddle with these a while as no two of these trucks are the same.

Re: Needing help
I use a wobble socket on a 12" extension and zip them off with my cordless if I remember. They are not a huge challenge to get to.
