Flexplate

[elorenzof]

Good Morning,

Building this truck is fun but you gotta remember the little things... I installed the Engine on the frame (rebuilt engine), Flexplate to the engine, the Trans to the engine (rebuilt trans), and the Transfer case to the Trans (rebuilt xfer case).
I went to bolt on the flexplate to the torque converter and i think i installed the flexplate backwards... I know im dumb. When i went to install the 3 bolts the torque converter is about a 1/4 inch further away and the bolts are not long enough now to reach from the flexplate into the torque coverter. I can use a small prybar to move the torque converter forward into the flexplate but with resistance. The flexplate, the mounting "tabs" on the 3 flex plate bolts are indented toward the engine instead of indented out toward the torque converter. I'm at work now but did i install the flexplate backwards? I'm doing a frame up build so instead of unbolting the transfer case and trans i could just unbolt the bolts from the bellhousing to the engine and my two engine mounts and lift the motor out.
