The trust bearing is  new, needle bearing too.
I look at the old one and seems to be exactly the same....
Tonight i ll  took off parts from the pp and the clutch disk,,,, clean it
with brake cleaner   etc,,, and maybe surface the flywheel. I ll check the
pp with a machined rule to see any curves on it.

then pushed for reverse (oposite side of 5 gear) ,,,,, it s blocked
somewhere, something is stopping the movement to shift reverse.....
