Getting the Coyote plus TREMEC 600 installed was thrilling. The trans mounting with spacers was tough to figure out, but it's in. The "A frame" has me stumped. I got the top of the A installed, but the holes on the clutch end don't match -- by at least an inch. [I really wish I had a lift!]

My A, frame brace was the same. I left everything loose, slotted holes as needed and used a ratchet strap to pull the last hole in alignment. If I have to deal with it again, out comes the saw and welder. I was fortunate enough to have it on a lift.

An inch? I have never had one not just drop in.
Picture?

Post a picture, I have a Coyote 3rd gen with the TKO 600, and had no issues installing with the A-frame.

Mine too. Something must be off.

Here are some old pics of mine, while I was building. You can see the slight bow in one of the front legs, probably the one I had the most issues in getting lined up. In the other pic, you can see the welded hanger on the cross member looks off center. I did not notice this during installation and will have to verify it is actually off center. If others frames are not off center as mine appear, obviously the issue ???

Thanks to all. Even with 24" jack stands it's a bother. Luckily, my son in skinnier and nimbler. We'll loosen things up, and do what's needed to tighten it up.
