Default Putting back on Rear Tower bar

I can get 3 bolts on right, but the last one is always off by a little bit so it won't go in stright. We tried jacking up the car and putting jack stands on both the rear so it's even and that still doesn't work. My friend said we might need to jack the middle of the car. If so does anyone know the jack point in the rear? I just finished doing my suspension, but i can't get the rear bar back on.

thanks

When I had the color change on my car, they pulled that out to paint it(we are talking the one in the trunk, right?). I had to strong-arm it into place... not easy, but I did not jack the car up at any point.
