I am having a real hard time seating my torque converter. I have looked at the other threads and it seems I have done everything correctly. I followed the manual to the best of my (poor) abilities. Any body have any ideas of why i can't seat the T/C. I can turn the turbine shaft by hand. its tight but I can do it.
I have even proped the tranny verticle to try to set it into place and I get nothing.

Its the one that came with it. 02 4l80e.
I spun it around while rocking it back and forth... I messed up the pump gasket pulling the pump so I will try again tomorrow.
any tips or tricks for getting the pig to fall in? I used the bell housing bolts to help give me a better grip.

i too had alot of trouble installing my fuddle last week. also once i got it in, and the trans bolted up, i could spin the converter freely until the bellhousing was 1/8-1/4" from tight. I know it was seated fully as the measured depth was very close to that of the stocker, and it was engaging the pump. i just figured this one was a bit long. Will that **** stuff up if its a little tight??

performabuilt you are a damn genius. This is the second time you have bailed me out. I was looking on your website and didn't see any listing for parts. I would like to start ordering my parts through you. Not that I am gonna be making orders on a constant basis buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut, You have my business from here on out.
On a side note I know it went in cause uh when I was setting it down it went right in and crushed the hell out of my fingers.
