Just to make sure..

You removed the little bottom support panel in the rear?

Can you post any pics from above, under and the passenger wheel opening.

I got it past the subframe I had to take off the engine mount on the right side if you’re looking at it from the driver side and lift up the engine, but now I’m trying to get the pin in that holds in the smallest bolt on the transmission, that’s the opposite side of the rest

Watch the video to see what I’m stuck at the transmission won’t move in

Looks like the Converter isn't sitting all the way in. That's why the dowel pins aren't going in

The converter is torque down

There should of been like 2 "steps" to settling the converter. I just want to make sure it is so you don't burn up the trans pump.

I have a kiggly flex plate, you can see in my picture, the converter and flex plate, about half inch into the transmission case side.

I put on my converter before I put in the transmission and I’m pretty sure there were 2steos to that but I’ve been trying to turn the engine as I put to see if the second set of splines aren’t lined up

NO NO NO!!! you must put the converter in the trans and seat it in before installing onto the motor..

 

[zippy22]

Oh crap ok

Can I just undo it and push it back

Remove the transmission COMPLETELY, unbolt the TC from the flexplate, then seat the TC onto the trans. Seems easier to do with the trans (block facing side) facing up because you want to make sure it clicks twice. After that, you mount the trans to the engine. You bolt the TC to the flexplate by spinning the engine to line up the mounting pads.

I can’t get the transfer case back on and I’m not sure what is stoping it it stops right when the splines are bigger

Could I get some information on how to put on the shift linkage and maybe a photo it’s an auto
