The IMS is outa center pushed up and too the right............ it really doesnt have any play or wiggle too it (as far as I can tell) which would allow it to go back to center where it needs to be to get the flange on. With it being off-center I dont see how it is possible for the flange to slid on ........ everything has pretty tight tolerances and it seems the only way the flange will actually go on is if the IMS is dead nuts centered.....which mine is not.

Im thinking about maybe rotating the camshaft pully a little to the right or left and see if the IMS will straiten itself out............. or is this a very bad Idea?

From what I have read, it doesn't seem like removing the third tensioner located under the ac compression will have any effect on what my problem is ............ or am I wrong??

Thank you very much for all the help thus far guys!!! i appreciate it!
