takes some muscle to maneuver the axle into aligning back up.

loosen a four u-bolts (only enough for axle to move around, not enough for the block to fall out.) by doing this when you take off one side of the u-bolts and add the block, you will be able to swing the axle forward or backward enough to line up the pins.
