Default Rear differential not cooperating

So I was going to try and swap the LSD from my wrecked S14 over to the working one, but it doesn't seem to want to move forward so the rear bolts can clear the subframe. I mean its not moving forward any, no matter what I do if I jack it back up the front bolts will line right back up

Anyone have any hints on how to get it out? When I originally installed the LSD it I don't remember it being this difficult. It was just disconnect all the nuts/bolts, jack it up a little, slide it forward then lower it down.

maybe disconnect the drive shaft? I don't remember it being that difficult either. well it wasn't easy but not that hard.

The drive shaft and both axle shafts have already been disconnected.

I don't get how its that hard then. put the drive shaft end of the diff in first, then lift the back end to meet the subframe thingy.
