    If you loosen the radiator, it will allow the few degree of movement just so you can get the thread started. Radiator is easy to unlock and lock into place.

    I FINALLY DID IT!

    After some thought I decided to do the most obvious thing. I pour out some tranny fluid on my finger and rubbed it on the outside of the hose and the housing and with some wiggle it went in. Ahhh that was super frustrating but thank you all for your help!

    Now it is time to refill the tranny fluid, get some new brake fluid in the car, and change out the rear diff.

    Anyone change out their tranny mounting bushings? Advice? Difficulties?
