it came out where i have it supported, rubber mounts on sway bar, if you look at the shiny part of the yoke that goes into the output shaft , half of it slides in and then it just stops, i took it back out and tried again and it just slides in and just stops, seems like it is hitting something

Try rotating it a little when you pull it out, then put it back in.
