I can't get this to go backup to screw it back in place. The bottom part is too big to fit through. One of the options is to remove that metal spring there, but I think that might be the brake line. Any suggestions?

It's on a 99 accord sedan.

i tried lifting it up with the jack, but the whole thing would lift up with the assembly.

swaybar in the way??

could be, im not 100% sure which is the sway bar though but i know if i take out of the bars it will come out....this is my first time doing struts. now im kinda regretting doing it, but hopefully my friend will be able to come soon and help me.

I can get it close to come out, but it always gets stuck at that point.
