Chuck what is the function of those four large bolts or nuts
I see on the
back side of this bell housing?

Those are the nuts for the countersunk bolts that hold the planet carrier to
the bellhousing. On the other side. There are also two small dowel pins to
accurately hold the carrier on center.

Aw So! That is why yours is out of alignment. Ford designed it so the
square teeth prevented the planet carrier from rotating while giving
a bit of wiggle room. Chuck Harberts was like yours. That was a cost 
saving trick on the part of Chris Ross. All Ross's are different. Finn's 
uses the teeth, poorly aligned I might add.
