Is there a trick to it I am missing?
Is it just hard to get them started? If that is the problem then use a drill bit or a body reamer to open up the hole in the end of the ballcup just a little bit so you can get the turnbuckles started threading in. Apply a little grease, or chapstick to lube the threads a little bit.
