TQ was prefilled. We did have a little trouble getting them bolted together.
Dowel fit perfectly on one side, but the tranny had shifted a little on the
jack so we had a little work to get the other side to mate up. I am leaning
towards a faulty TQ install myself. Gonna pick up a tranny jack attachment
today so I can try and drop the tranny to verify.
