1994 Acura Integra axle problem

Yesterday my friend helped me lowering the car by adding coilovers to it. We started on the front left wheel, to get the stock spring out we had to push the strut down downward and this is where the problem comes in. Pushing with hands downward isn't enough power so I use my legs to push the hub assembly downward. The strut is out. Stock springs is out but the wheel is locked. My friend thinks the axle must have fall out of socket so we tried to push it back in blindy but it did not work. Please help, thank you very much
