..move the cone carrier forward with like pressure from a screw driver to
mimic engagement. Then rotate the out put shaft to align the splines in the
freewheel unit and the planetary gear set.. easy way/right way..

Besides wiring the O/D pump out of the way, make sure the splines in the
bottom of the O/D line up perfectly. You can't turn the first set of
splines, so you have to reach through the first set to reach those for the
one-way clutch, which will only turn in one direction. I never was able to
use successfully the "long screwdriver" technique mentioned in the shop
manual so I made a special tool that out of sheet metal and a stick that
would span the diameter of the splines. That worked pretty well. By
sliding the tool in and out in the splines, I can feel when they are lined
up correctly.

The late Doug Reid had what he called the wire trick, where a piece of wire
12-14 gauge is threaded thorough the drain plug and used to hold the pump
cam in a compressed state. It's a bit fiddly, but works ok.
