this will sound like no help but they normal fit in very easy with a bit a grease. When i do them i push them in with fingers and with a soft wood dolly tap round to get it level - i`ve never had an issue with them

mind there are 2 types - early and efl but not sure what the size difference is - think early maybe bigger

best of luck
