You shouldn't have to force anything together other than the sliding bearing and inner seal. I would disassemble the forks and reassemble while consulting a parts fiche like ronayers.com.
Also, when you're hammering in the sliding bearing and inner seal, I found that it works a little better to do them one at a time, bearing first, obviously. The reason is that most of the resistance met in the process is due to the sliding bearing and by sandwiching the seal, you put it under a lot of pressure and can risk marring it.
