Hey, just replaced the slave cylinder, hydraulic line, and the clutch/flywheel in my truck. Now for the life of me, I can’t get the clutch to disengage enough to shift into gear at all. I did the method listed on this site of gravity bleeding it, and I tried that. Fluid is coming out fine, no bubbles. I can see the slave moving, but it’s only moving about a 1/2 inch, maybe a little bit less. This is my first clutch install, and I’m pretty sure I did everything correctly. Novice question, but can you install the pressure plate backwards too? I don’t remember seeing a front/back on the plate. I installed it with the completely flat side forwards the flywheel, and the raised side to the rear. If anyone could give me bleeding tips, or correct me if I did anything wrong it would be greatly appreciated.
