Icon8 Transmission install update

Im am so done with this truck I have no clue what to do I can not get this ****** in at all ive been working on it for almost a week straight probably 30+ hours just trying to jam that bitch into the engine no matter what i do nothing has worked or even gotten close to the person who recommended taking out the clutch to see if the spline fits in it yes it does fit inside but when im under that truck all by myself I cant do **** i dont want to part with this vehicle I love my truck even though it hasnt ran since 2019 all I want is to drive it 10 feet like god damn whose idea was it to put so many teeth on the spline on this transmission ive seen other transmissions with 6-8 teeth this bitch has got probably 20 teeth on it. this is just my little rant im so pissed off i dont understand what im doing wrong I mean jesus i havent got any teeth into that **** and yes everything is lined up properly when i installed the clutch i ended up finding a damn wire with a plastic connecter inbetween my **** so maybe that stoped me before from getting it in but i got that bitch moved now im kinda to the point I just want to take the ******* engine out

Yes, quite common for part of engine wiring harness to fall down and prevent trans from sliding in all the way, better than just 1 wire, that gets damaged because engine and trans does go together, and you have to track down why it doesn't start or run right because a wire got pinched/damaged

Whenever I've run into a stubborn problem & get frustrated, my personal cure is
back away slowly & breath deeply, not work on it for several hours or overnite,
let my blood pressure return to normal, & then with a clear+open mind again approach the problem from a different view.

You should learn to use periods and you should clean up your mouth.
