39 dodge d10 clutch issues

[kouseneric39]

I need help

I bought a 39 dodge d10 with a rumble from the clutch but runs perfect it has a 53dodge engine tranny I was told 

I took the transmission off because it was pouring fluid into the clutch assembly witch i believed caused chatter issuesand found the car was missing the pilot bushing also the clutch spring housing was broken the throughout bearing sounded like it was dipped in sand 

I already had a spare tranny so From there I ordered a gasket kit new clutch pressure plate had the flywheel machined pilot bushing and throughout bearing 

So I tapped the pilot bushing flush with the crank couldn't find a definitive answer if the bushing is flush or not due to there being no bushing in there I had nothing to go by

I installed the bell housing to torque I then installed the flywheel that only lines up one way to torque

I then installed clutch and pressure plate also torqued

Put new throughout bearing 

The transmission then went on I got longer bolts to thread into the housing to slowy walk the transmission into the bell housing 

Going on i could push the Trans in by hand had to walk it in with bolts 

Once it was all back together I started the car still no floor so it was at idle with the clutch pressed in and the emergency brake applied the output shift of the Trans was stopped and the engines rpms didn't fluctuate so trying to **** I to any gear there's a grind 

Open father inspection I adjust the clutch forks clutch pedal linkage realize that both holes are egged from 85 years of use I put temporary spacers into the rods to take the play out of the linkage however in gear running with transmission shafts spinning this car is quieter than I thought possible the emergency brake pad makes more noise than anything lol 

So here is where I'm at I'm going to take this all back apart today to inspect for anything unusual I will check the spline on the input shaft however does anyone have a checklist of things to check also I need help with the clearance of my pilot bushing 

I want to know more about what a pilot bushing either clearance is to tight or miss installed what issues could that possibly cause 

I also would like contact info for someone who can rebuild my original Trans because even with it low on fluid and missing a pilot bushing still drove great

I'm 34 this is my only car I'm going to daily drive it so time is a factor please reach out with help I want to keep this old beauty crankin 

Thank you sincerely Eric
