Hi guys. New to the forums.. Having the same issue, yet on my I have the transmission in all 4 bolts in, but there is a 1/2 inch gap between the bell housing and transmission.. Not forcing it, but it just won't close up. Have have taken it off and reinserted it 3 times. Something doesn't seem to be lining up. This is the original truck transmission I am just trying to reinstall it.

Any ideas?
