I remember when I put up the disc and PP on the flywheel I just lined up the holes not any dowel pins. I am a rookie. Am I doomed?? I tried the clutch after the install as its still in the air and all seemed ok. What should I do??
I slid the driveshaft in and rotated it to line the splines up. You wouldn't have been able to get the trans that far if they weren't lined up. There are no dowel pins on the flywheel for the PP. Did you put a new bushing / bearing in with a hammer? Could have made it out-of-round causing some friction between it and the input shaft, but it'll be fine.
