BLUJEEP

Hi all, I finally got my tranny together without much trouble. But when I went to put it into the chassis, I can't get the bottom hole in the skid plate to line up with the bottom hole of the motor plate.

The only way to get it to line up is to push down on the motor slightly, which seems to straighten up the motor plate and get the holes to align, but then the back end of the motor looks slightly crooked compared to the chassis and trans case. I was very careful to tighten everything in a cross pattern and just can't see why the holes aren't matching up.

I'm afraid if I run it this way I'm going to mess up some gears.



Not sure if this is clear, the back of the motor just seems slightly crooked after aligning the bottom holes and tightening it all down. The frame rail is at the bottom:



Thanks for looking.
