Fixing the clutch and have a problem... I can't get it to work. I have done this job multiple times and havent encountered this yet. It wont go in or out of any gear while engine is running and it there is a creak in the bellhousing that wasnt there before. Can you give me any insight on what is going wrong? Dazed and Confused, J
First of all you said that the disk is in backwards. If this is the case, then it's possible that the friction plate is grinding on the flywheel and isn't transmitting any drive to the gearbox input shaft.
If you are certain that your friction plate has been installed the wrong way around, then you MUST do the job again and re-install. Im most cases an incorrect installation should have been obvious as the clutch cover plate would most often be difficult to tighten down and the friction plate would often be very difficult to align before tightening down the cover plate.
My guess is that you perhaps have another issue. You may have an issue with the release bearing, or release lever/assembly. I am not familiar with your model of vehicle, but does it have a clutch cable or hydraulic action? If it's a cable, then make certain that the cable has been re-adjusted after the new clutch plate install. If your adjustment is too tight then your clutch is basically disengaged and your car won't drive. If it's too loose, then you won't be able to disengage the clutch.
If you have a hydraulic system, then first try bleeding any air from the system and try operating the clutch once more.
Additional questions:
1) Can you select gears with the engine turned off? If no, then check your gear selector mechanism for fitment and operation.
2) If a gear can be selected, then with the vehicle started, does the vehicle move? If no, then check clutch cable adjustment, or remove gearbox and check friction plate, and cover fitment as well as release bearing operation.
3) When you hear a creak in the bell-housing, is the engine running or not running? If not running, then check clutch cable adjustment or bleed hydraulic lines and try again. If no luck, then remove gearbox and start again.
SOURCE: transmission wont go into reverse
The transmission will need to come out and be torn down. The reverse shift fork is probably broken.

I would first bleed the tranny lines, if that doesnt work then your tranny is out and need to get it replaced. FYI with Jeep Wranglers, It is better to get a new transmission then to rebuild them
SOURCE: wont/shift/in/passing/gear
Check to see if the transmission tv shift cable is attached to the throttle body. Are the shift point all high?

Are you having to add fluid? If yes, look for the leak. If no, It's the clutch master cylinder.
SOURCE: Hyd. Slave cylinder WITHOUT bleeder
you have to replace the master and slave. if there is no bleeder, you might get lucky bench bleeding it, but the whole assy, comes from dealer pre-bled. The system is sealed and even to do a clutch or trans, you shouldnt have to take it apart. DO NOT PUSH CLUTCH WITHOUT ALL PARTS HOOKED UP! youll break it.
