I just go through putting a new clutch kit in my 05 GT. I can push the clutch in and the drive shaft can free spin by hand but when I let the clutch out the drive shaft spins like it is in gear.....? The shifter acts like it is in neutral moving side to side but will not go in any gear with the motor on or off with the clutch in or out.... please help?????

When you press the clutch pedal in does it feel normal?
Why did you change the clutch?
Almost sounds like a transmission problem, not a clutch problem.

Maybe you need to bleed the clutch hydraulic line. I'm due to replace mine, and I've heard the clutch pedal has to be pumped 100 or so times to get the bubbles out. If the shifter's weird, maybe racerraj is right, and it's a linkage/transmission problem. Does it grind when you try to put it into gear? Is the pilot bearing fresh?
