<VV> Heim joint--can't install

[Ernie Sanders]

Have a 67 coupe.  Replaced a driver side half shaft.  Had to remove the heim joint to get it in.  Now I can't get the joint back in either end.  Been working 3 days on it!
 
The wheel hub appears to be twisted in such a way that the bolt that goes thru the heim joint won't go through.  I have tried the same thing on the differential end, too.  
 
Any suggestions?  Thanks.  Ernie in Louisville, KY.
