..to open it properly you need to also post the IAM's that are in it

Hi seventhmoreno,

 

See this link, and then be sure your subassembly is set to be Flexible also:

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,

As Curtis said you'll need it to be an Flexible assembly in whatever assembly you place it ...

 

TO do that go to the browser of the assembly it's placed in RMB and click on Flexible

For your upload:

 

problem is I'm not sure where you're putting this or how.

 

I've tried to open your assembly..however

When you post an assembly you need all the files (parts and sub-assemblies) that make up the assembly.   Posting only the assembly is useless.
