advice on aligning motor mount bracket

[redfire gt]

ok so I took my driver side motor mount bracket off to get to the bottom header bolts, i lifted the motor a few inches and then after I installed the motor mount back on and lowered the motor the motor mount bracket wont go back over the actual hole so i can put the nut back on. Anyone had this happen or know a way to fix this? thanks

Loosen the other side and Pry the motor over till you can

pry it with like a stick or something?

A prybar would be best... maybe a crowbar if you've got that lying around

yea i dont think I do ha, i gotta figure this out lol. what if i put the bracket on the hole first and then drop the motor down and then put the bolts on?

You can try a 2x4 or something that wont mark up anything. Also you can try to use a punch to line the bolt hole up or to hold it in place once you pry it over.

You can try lifting the motor just a hair putting in the bolts then drop it down once they are all started
