cant attach upper control arm after 2" Spacer

I installed a 2-inch level kit spacer on my 1st gen tundra. Now I can't seem to get the struts to compress enough to reattach the UCA to the ball joint. Have tried jacking the LCA up but that just raises the truck. Have tried lowering the truck down on itself but that still doesn't seem to get me close enough. Also have tried ratchet straps. Nothing seems to work, any suggestions?
Should note drivers side went on no problem. Is there something wrong with my struts/shocks? Have had them a few hundred miles and haven't noticed any issues prior.

 

Is your swaybar disconnected? Make sure it is unbolted on both sides.

Are you working with a stock shock and spring assembly? (Aside from the spacer)

 

This.
If it's not disconnected do you have both wheels in the air and no weight on either lower control arm?

I did mine (coilovers not spacers) without disconnecting the sway bar.

You can also stick a pry bar in the coil and pull down on the UCA or stick the jack upside down between the UCA and fender liner to get it lower.

 

spring compressors, pry bar, curse words, excessive sweating. All were involved in reinstalling the longer than stock strut assemblies on mine.

 

Really hope this didn’t happen to you, but there is the possibility of pulling the CV axle out, which will cause this issue.

refer to thread below of a fellow member having the issue:

I got it in, All I did was buy a couple of bricks and slowly lowered the A-arm down onto it. Did the trick!! Then just used the ratchet strap for minor tweaking
