I’ve gone and put in a 2g 4g63t into my mighty max/d 50. It’s mated the original KM132 trans mission using the Eclipse flywheel and pressure plate and the trucks disc.
With the clutch disengaged (pedal up) and the trans in gear there is no vehicular movement. With the rear off the ground and the trans in gear I can spin the driveshaft, see the gears in the transmission spinning and hear the disc scuffing (slipping). There isn’t enough contact to drive the remaining components. What am I missing here?
Thanks in advance George the Painter

This is the flywheel I used. FWD Eclipse

I'm not the drivetrain specialist but I've not see a bearing in a DSM flywheel before.
Have you measured the step height and the clutch disk thickness?

I think you're saying that when the clutch is engaged (pressure plate clamping the disk) it not really clamping. Is that correct?

Engaging the clutch allows power to transfer from the engine to the transmission and drive wheels. Disengaging the clutch stops the power transfer and allows the engine to continue turning without force to the drive wheels.
