Default Having trouble putting rocker arm shaft back into rocker arm

I have a 2003 sportster xl1200c. Can't seem to get the rocker arm shaft rod back into the rocker arm itself. Any suggestions would be great.

Never mind. I figured it out. I just had to loosen the bolts, lift up the cover so that the push rod would not keep the arm shaft from turning where I needed it to go in order to push the arm shaft rod through. Also had to grease up one of arm shaft rod's in order to get it in as well.

Thanks,

Gary
