The assembly is all very snug as it should be. You'll be using the floor jack to raise and lower the assembly while searching for alignment by whacking the shaft end (don't damage the threads, wood, aluminum hammer etc.) and holding things in place at the same time. It's not easy, but can be done with NO special tools.
