1985 engine removal

Manual says remove all hoses,wires, carb, exhaust, etc engine mouning bolts and swingarm bolt. Then remove engine from the left side. Not so fast! All is loose, I can freely move the engine around almost an inch but not back and up enough for the water pump and mounting lug to clear the frame mounting tab.
Any ideas please?

Removed the swingarm from the pivot (10 mins) and the engine came right out. Duh!
