HELP! 90Q Clutch R/R

[Henry A Harper III]

I believe you are observing the "normal" operation of a T*rsen-equipped
vehicle that doesn't have the driveshaft installed. It's interesting that
the front hubs without wheels would turn and now with wheels they
won't...but try installing the driveshaft before coming to the conclusion
that something is wrong with the clutch installation job.
