XJ upper control arm bushing question

2000 Cherokee, I6 4.0, AW4

Im in the process of changing control arm bushings. Last night I was installing the passenger upper control arm. I got the frame side in (just the bolt in, no nut yet) but when I tried putting the axel side in (putting the bolt in)and I noticed the hole is about a 1/2in off. Question : What is the best way to rotate the axle control arm mount back about a half inch? Ratchet strap?

I used a rachet strap. Hook one end to the axle, and the other end on your trans crossmember. And if they doesnt have enough pull, use a come-a-long

That's what I was thinking. Thanks for the quick confirm. I'll have to do it tomorrow before the big game. Can't do it now cause I'm working .....blahh
