Need advice: High voltage splitter replacement

Can't Post

I'm almost there, seems fairly easy enough. I did stumble on the part where I'm in the process of inserting the main leads however I can't seem to get it in all the way to the marked point on the wire. I've got the right length but am short about a 1/4", it just won't go and when I give it a little muscle it still won't go and the tip of the wire keeps bending out of shape.
What am I doing wrong?
The tubes where the leads go into is about 2 3/4" long with a tiny hole in the bottom where the tip of the wire seats into but it seems like the hole is just big enough for a perfect fit. No tolerance at all, I'm slowly inserting the lead making sure it's straight trying to feel for where the hole is and just when I think its seated that 1/4" just won't go and the wire keeps bending. Grrrrrrr, trying to keep my cool.
The exposed wire is about 3/8" long however I took a straightened paper clip and inserted it into the hole at the bottom f the tube on the old splitter and it only goes in about an 8th of an inch. Is the rest of the wire supposed to bend?
