raise engine
remove engine side plates
lower engine and stab to trans while hanging on the hoist
bolt up trans and torque converter
raise engine back up and install side plates
lower onto engine mounts
makes stabbing engine to trans so much easier!! (and possible)
Otherwise just take a break, clean shop, put tools away, that sort of thing...then come back at it in a little while. Amazingly when I do this they seem to slide right together the next day or after lunch or whatever
