Default New Clutch

I just blew my clutch up, and put in the OFEK from Southbend. I'm trying to get my tranny lined up, I have it on a jack, but am having problems getting it to line up by myself. Any tips for getting everything lined up?

You did use a clutch alignment tool right?

Ya.The NV4500 with the transfer case attached is just a bit bulky to try to maneuver with one person... Thought maybe someone might have done it by themselves before and might have a few tips.

I have not done a clutch in a while, but I do know it's easier to do the bell housing first, then install the tranny.

Really? You can do it that way? Well, worth a try. Thanks.
