Default Tips for installing Drive shaft on tight spaces?????

I wasted 2 hours and it's still not installed.
All im trying to do is connect my rear wheel to the engine using a drive shaft (DOG BONE)
There is no way to hold it. You insert one end on the rear while trying to connect to the engine.
It keeps on falling.....I almost set the whole car on fire due to frustration

If you could try to help us to understand the problem a little better then we may be able to help.
The rear wheel does not connect directly to the engine....the rear wheel (left or right) connects to the rear differential.

What model is it....do you have a manual....what is the part number you are trying to fit?

Some dog bones will be loose and can fall out if you do not have the O rings in the drive cups...incorrect length dogbones will fall out....incorrect suspension settings can also cause a dogbone to fall out....

Help us to understand the problem please...

I figured it out after removing the engine and it gave me enough space to install the bone

Thanks
