Swaping engine and trans from top ( first timer)



This ball joint laughs at me.I finally got it off the knuckle now I'm trying to replace. Does this set up look right? It doesn't turn anymore

Pulled one from a wreck for 20. This place is like heaven even saw a complete wiring harness from an 04. I pulled this one from an impala 04 I believe it's the same
 


Im almost sure ive got axles in the wrong place the driver side axle jams into the trans right before i could line up ball joint bolt with knuckle hole. It doesnt go far back enough just starts rocking the car back and forth. How frustrating..
 
I was right the longer axle goes on the passenger side, shorter goes on driver side. Can anyone else confirm i think i was getting the opposite earlier want to double check
 


Yeah everything seems to be going pretty good so far. Im reconnecting the wiring harness back to everything,most seem to fall in place. I am a bit concerned about the positive and negative cables that attach to the starter, ac compressor, alternator and . I made a huge mistake by not taking pics before removing bolts and nuts on these. I remember theres a negative somewhere behind the air injection pump bracket as well. I cant make a mistake on these guys. Any diagrams or ideas?
