96 Rodeo Flywheel Rubbing
 

Hey there,

I am currently in the process of putting a tranny back in my 96 Rodeo. It is from the same year and engine size as mine is. It has been really hard going back in and now as I am almost seated against the block I noticed that my flexplate is rubbing on the block by the starter housing. Am I doing something wrong? I have done 3 trannys on this truck but I have never had this kind of trouble before. I have tried using a floor jack to lift the engine and straighten things out but it doesnt seem to do anything. I am looking for any and all input please.

Thanks
