I agree with 48bigtrucks -- I recently hung my sm420 back on the motor and what he describes is exactly what it took to get the tranny to go the last inch. I didn't mess with the clutch at all. And it took two of us -- one guy wiggling the tranny (me) and the other guy trying to get the bolts in and started on the topside.

Keep at 'er -- you'll get it!
