Ignition help!

I started a thread about 4 or 5 months ago about this problem and am just now getting back to fixing the issue so figured I'd start a new thread.

The ignition column actuator had broken and has since been replaced. My problem now is getting the ignition actuator gear pictured below to mate up properly with the ignition cylinder pictured below the gear and housing the cylinder.




They mate up great when they're in my lap but I can't get the cylinder to get to ACC once I try to mate them while in the truck.

I've attached some other pics and hope they help. I'm getting desperate enough to get it towed for fixing since I've got things that need to be done and I need to get it buttoned up and back on the road.

I feel like I am SO close to the finish line, I can't give up just yet.

If you have experience with this and can give me a shout regarding how to finish this off, your help will be VERY appreciated.

Thanks.
