I have put a new clutch and flywheel in. I used a clutch alignment tool up until the point where I jacked the transmission up and got it onto the bolts. However it is not going in completely. Is the transmission shaft out of alignment? I actually got one bolt to thread and I can continue to tighten it down but I wanted to make sure that I am doing the right thing. What if I force the shaft in and the teeth are a little out of align?

Put the trans into any gear with your hand. Have a helper push the trans in with LIGHT pressure while you hold one output flange in place and turn the other a bit. This will turn the input shaft and hopefully line up the splines. A very small amount of bearing grease on the tip of the input shaft can help too.
