crankshaft installation

Is there a trick (other than growing two more hands) to get the assembled crank into the case and get the nose beating to line up with the dowl pin?

I fought with this for a few hours yesterday and ruined the seal in the nose bearing. I did use Wayne's method of marking the bearing before installation.

Thanks,
