Prg lift kit, cant get coilovers to fit

I got the prg advanced extended coilover lift kit. The coilover is longer than stock shock, and i cant get it to fit. I get the 3 bolts up top in and aligned, but when i try for the bottom of the strut the hole is like 1/2 inch away from being aligned to put bolt through. Ive tried prying up with a bar but still cant get it up enough to stick bolt in. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
