Slots! There are small slots in all mount points. On engine, trans, and most of all the mid-ship bearing to allow some adjustment or less tolerance in alignment when assembling on the plant line. I take it you did not remove shaft first and pulled engine and trans out as one peice? Anyway, loosen the mid-ship bearing at it's mount on x-over and it should move enough maybe. The slip joint is usually only on the last part of driveshaft and front part stays still. May have to loosen engine and trans mounts and try to slide it back a little. Won't be much for sure! wink
