Anyone like to help with a SJ motor install?

Heres the story...

Ok, I went outside to replace my release bearing on the transmission. The pin that sets into the clutch fork came out along with its assembly. I can seem to get the spring with the seat and rubber seal around it to set back into the slave cylinder along with the pin. I can't seem to figure it out, anyone have any ideas?

I would tinker with the thing but I have a few herniated disks in my back, and the pain is starting to get to my last nerve. I would love to do this without taking the car to a shop, just sucks that this back pain is really screwing me in doing this.
If anyone would like to help I would greatly appreciate it, I'll gladly pay you for your time. The motor should be done by monday and this transmission problem is the only thing holding me up... figures something I would think that would be simple appearently isnt to me.

???? Is the engine out?

If it ism, all you do is place the pin back in the rubber boot of the slave cylinder. And then put the clutch fork back on. The pin is super easy to re-align. If your not ambexedrious and cant hold the pin/fork with you right hand and thread the bolt to hold the for in. open the bleed screw on the back on the slave and push the pin in. the piston inside the slave will go back just like a piston in a caliper.

no need to reorder parts

I got it all together bacon, motors in just need to finish the grounds, bleed the slave again, put on a turbo, cut some metal and start it. I hope it starts
