Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 34 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 34 | just replaced the clutch on my '51 AD.adjusted the pedal for free play and now won't shift into gear.i did not replace the pressure plate as it seemed relatively new.any thoughts? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2001 Posts: 1,094 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2001 Posts: 1,094 | Is the throw out bearing on the arm correctly. If so I would tighten the adjustment some more, obviously the clutch is not disengaging.

A too-tight pilot bushing will do that, too.
