Keep at it, you will get it in. We had a difficult time getting mine back in too. Try pushing up on the engine too. That seemed to help. Definitely get a friend to help. Attach the transmission mount to the transmission, but not to the undercariage of the car. It helps to have another thing to hold on to and shake. It will go on there. Just keep pushing. Rest for a while, drink a beer, push some more.
Good luck.
Good luck.
I did my clutch install on a lift with a trans lift but the funny thing is, when the mechanic got ready to put the trans back in he jacked it almost into place and then just picked it up and slid it right in on the first try.
