Hey all, i FINALLY got the jeep running tonight, but i have NO clutch, the entire tranny was down, salave cylinder is bleed, the part that the slave cydliner pushes on (fork i think???) has a free play like 2" forward and back, is there a pivot point on the other side that it needs to be on, do i have to drop the tranny again???

i cant even come close to getting it into gear, grinds like all hell

Just off the top of my head (not knowing model or year) I would say it is one of the two normal mistakes. Pilot bushin in backwards, or clutch fork installed wrong. Just my swag.

That tranny has the external clutch slave cylinder so that means that there is a ball on the other side that the clutch fork sits on. There is also a clutch fork clip that secures the clutch fork to that ball. If you do not have the other side of the clutch fork on the ball then the clutch fork will not have leverage to engage the clutch pressure plate or if it does engage it will not be enough to keep the gears from grinding.

Maybe the throwout bearing fell off the clutch fork when you installed the tranny. You better drop it again to make sure everything is kosher.
