Have no clutch on my 20v ur coversion! Plaese help!

The pressure plate looks weird (too deep) - or is that just me?
Get a measurement from the face to the top of the fingers where the release bearing contacts.

i measured that today,sandwich of flywheel+plate+pressure plate=105mm
pressure plate 70mm
flywheel 35mm
friction disk 10mm

Have you defo got the right friction plate in, i.e. splines match and engage transmission shaft.

yea i had that on the gearbox when it was out again today. plate goes on nicely on the splines.

Not entirely sure but if you can change gear with the engine running without using the clutch then surely the clutch is disengaged. That would mean something is acting on the pressure plate.
The other possibility is that you might have mixed up components.
Are you using a genuine 3b flywheel or a 7a one?

flywheel i bough it here on forum as 3b one. i'll double check tomorrow on the part number, but i'm sure i did that allready when i bought it.
but when things turn wrong way you double checking everything

You haven't answered the spigot bearing issue. You have the correct sized for the input shaft installed in the end of the crankshaft?

Yes, spigot bearing replaced to take ur input shaft and fitted into crank

thank you guys for inputs! regarding flywheel,
tonks4x4 can say more. as far as he told me he done setups like that not ones and had no issues.
maybe a very silly question but does the driveshafts and prop shaft have to be connected to test it?
what i done today i had a gearbox out third time and removed realese bearing completely with the fork and fitted it back on. still the same.
can put into any gear while engine runing

i'm lost

As DJones as said, there is a difference between the 3B flywheel and perhaps the more desirable MB/RR late 200/100 turbo flywheel. As its thicker it moves the stack backwards. Either the original Ur components or the matching MB/RR would work without any problems. The 3B pressure plate is the same as a MB/RR/200 one so the issue is most likely the flywheel.

[george21]

Im guessing you used the ur friction and pressure plate. Only other unknown to me is 3B flywheel + maching. Do you have the old flywheel to try?

I'm using 3b flywheel, ur plate, 3b pressure plate, ur release bearing.
I have no ur flywheel to swap it over.
Something gone wrong with this setup but can't
Figure out what at the moment

Which 20v did you use. If an ABY did you fit the spacer that was between engine and box, it should be there for DM flywheels only.

yes it is aby unit. spacer removed. any other thoughts?
