Suggestion,

A couple of pressed in stainless steel guide pins would make this baby slide right in/out and align to the mating shaft and frame. Using guide pins can reduce the number of bolts to the frame and provide a accurate fit.

See how a car transmission bolts to a engine. Usually a couple of pins on the bell housing that mate to blind holes on the engine. The pins help to align the shafts and just a couple of bolts to hold the transmission on.
