Best way to bolt engine and gearbox together while the engine is out ?

[finch wxm]

Any advice on people best methods for aligning up and bolting gearbox together ?

Am I best using the engine crane to lift the box or would it better 2 of picking it up and aligning onto the shaft ?

Should only take one person to slide it on unless your a weakling. You may need to put the engine in a tyre or lift it slightly with a crane to get clearance against the floor.

when i did mine had the engine sported with a crane and a block of would under the sump so the flywheel end was pointing up slightly then just lifted the box onto the engine. the better the clutch is lined up the easier it will go on.

Well I picked the box up and aligned the bolts of the box with the two holes and the box is flush against the engine do I'm assuming that's ok ?

if there was an issue I assume the gearbox case wouldn't move all the way to the end ?

will be ok as long as the release bearing hasn't come of the fork.
