Hi eveeyone, just joined the site and am hoping for a little help with my issue...
2006 explorer 4x4 4.0L sohc...
Im doing an engine swap, old engine is out and new (used) engine it in on the mounts and 4 bell housing started. All bolts are loose to allow for some wiggle room. I thought i may be able to spin the crank from this point to line up the torque converter studs. Problem is the crank won't budge. Is it possible that the flywheel is binding on the converter? This is the first engine ive done that has studs on the converter rather than threaded holes. And info or direction on this would be extremely helpful! I need to get this figured out asap. Thanks!
