Replacing Manual transmission mount 1990 244? 200

Howdy everyone, working on 1990 244.....
I was doing the ujoints in my driveshaft and since I had the driveshaft out of the way I decided to replace the trans mount. I removed the crossmember and put on the new mount.... but now that I am reinstalling the crossmember it is not willing to match up to its holes cause I have a nice new mount pushing it way back. Does anyone have ideas about how to get things to cooperate?

I tried using my jack to move/position the trans but to no avail.

Thank you in advance for the help.

Dru.

    One thing I have done is with an assistant, a two X four and some rope is rig it so you can ,from the front of the car, use the 2x4 as leverage, just a good tug was enought to line em up, hope its' not to ghetto.

    Check your motor mounts. They may be shot and allowed the engine to move backward.

    You have two holes per crossmember side. Try using a phillips screwdriver through one hole to lever the member into position while inserting the bolt in the other hole. (Hope that the nut weld in the frame holds while doing this.)

      This is the method I've used with success.
