I put a new clutch in, ram stg 3 hd, and a new slave with a spacer from tsp because I had the centerforce flywheel resurfaced (40 thousands) I bled the slave several times. the car is still a little stiff going into gear and difficult to go into reverse. I noticed today on a slight up hill grade that the car was inching foward slowly with the clutch pressed in, pull it out of gear and the car rolled backwards...so the clutch is still slightly engaged when the pedal is fully pressed down. So could this be caused from the spacer being too thick, or just could have possibly not been bled completely? thanks for the help.

How thick is your spacer? .040" is too much to remove from any flywheel my suggestion would be to replace the flywheel. Please feel free to call our tech line (800) 932-5882 for more options.

the shim was .150" . I had the flywheel resurfaced here at a reputable clutch place, they said it would work fine?

I was told not to take more than .005 off the flywheel, and I think GM says don't mill replace. At .040, in addition to having an engagement problem, I would be concerned that the integrity has been compromised. You sure don't want a flywheel exploding.

so what about the spacer, could it be causing the clutch to still engage with the pedal pressed in?
