I have done several searches but can't seem to find what I am looking for.

I put in a new stock cluch, new pressure plate, through out bearing and flywheel/pilot bearing..

It is still up on the jack stands but when I put it in gear, I can turn the axles?? I did attempt to start it and I am able to switch gears with out using any clutch at all??

Pls Help, what have I done wrong. I just seems like the tranny shaft is either not going into the clutch plate? Or I put it together wrong and it is disengaged all the time.

 

is trans bolted on tight? it goes into gears without clutch running ? or off? watch the release arm while u push pedal make sure it moving

 

its fine you should be able to move the wheels even if its in gear. loosen the cable all the way too.

 

Yea you are right...last night was not a very productive night. After pulling the tranny 3 times to double check the clutch install. I realized that you need some drag...meaning the tires need to installed and the car needs to be on the ground. I think it was OK all along... I feel like a real idiot......

Now I it doesn't seem like the driver side axle is going all the way back in. Should it be flush with the seal??? I have been banging it for about 2hrs but it seems like it is hitting and installed.

Thx for the help/advice

 

it wont be flush no. i small gap it will have

 

I did kinda the same thing when I was swapping from a auto to manual, put my nice stage 2 exeddy clutch in and heard a loud pop when I played with that release arm and then it didnt feel like the release bearing was moving, so i pulled the tranny out, double checked everything, put it back in, still the same. Pull it out and check everything again, then I ordered a new clutch and put that in. Then I decided to put some ***** into it when I pushed on the release arm and it moved perfectly fine.

So i ordered a new clutch and pulled my tranny out at least 6-7 times during this swap. And it probably whent together fine the first time. Oh well lesson learned i guess.
