grab the ends, out by your hubs and push into the trans til it compresses all the way. However much pressure it takes to compress them. then have a friend tap the end of hte spindle with a sledge or any hammer that has weight behind it. also try twisting it if it doesn't go in still.

If you still can't get them to go in pull them back out and make sure your c clip isn't bent

the way I put mine in is that I pull the axle about 1/2 out and push it in with a little force. and if it don't go in I'll do the same way again but make sure to rotate or turn the axle about 1/2 clock wise. it always work for me. BUT MAKE SURE THAT YOUR CAR IS NOT ON GEAR..

do you have a little hose on the nipple of the bleeder? do that and then put the hose into a bottle of brake fluid... this won't allow the clutch to suck air back in every time you let the pedal back up
