Default 4+3 tranny install

I cant seem to be able to get the c beam back into place
the tranny is already back in,does the transmission have to go in with the c beam or can it be done with the tranny already in? Any help in detail would be greatly appreciated.

It will go, just not easily. Take a pipe or something and coax the transmission over a bit.

I've tried that and the tranny is still loose on the bellhousing.

before transmission is in you should have the c beam on the rear end, in all the 4+3 and ZF transmissions I have always left the most rear bolt in the c beam in but loose.

I have found that if the c beam is removed from rear totally the rear flexes up making it a bear to get together
