Dunno what to suggest about your prob tho'.. did ye stick summit in the clutch hole to align it properly before stickin' the gearbox back on?
 
Today i froze my ass off attacking the paint work with a grinder and flapwheel 60 grit, bin right round the bugger twice.
 
Well, not today, but yesterday actually.

Drilled a load of holes to run cable-ties through to hold my front wiring looms in place. Siliconed the holes up from the inside. Waxoiled them up from underneath.
 
very good whole sleeve all the way up got no left arm now on me overalls dint realise till i stopped welding
 
haha good show! i've not had a complete sleeve go, i have had my hair, my leg, my crotch (try beating that one out with your hand) and my boot while cutting through a 3/8" thick piece of plate
 
wow thats what i was doing 9 inch grinder and didnt realise n then did when i stopped and the whole sleeve was up

It was stuff I got from my local Partco a wee whiles back bj for doin' inside the rear tub, it's made by Bodyline. I thinned it down a little with standard thinners and used a normal spray gun and compressor to stick it on with so it is smooth;)
