John Deer 410B Problem installing front cv shaft

I had to replace the front axle housing do to it breaking. I was able to get the left front cv shaft back in without a problem but the right front cv shaft which is the longer one wont align with the internal splines. I am wondering if anyone has run into this before or is there a secrete to getting this shaft back in. It goes almost all the way in but when the shaft gets to the part of the shaft that sits against the seals it gets jammed up. Should I take the hub apart and install the shaft separate? Please help
