6 Spring Hc 4 Linings Problem

Hi, we recently installed the 6 spring kit on my 4 lining sniper, problem is now the clutch seems NOT to fully disengage when you press the clutch. Even when the clutch is pressed you will still feel a resistance from the engine that means the clutch are still on contact. Also there is a 'tok' sound that you will hear when releasing the clutch.We also noticed that the clutch press became very soft, even softer than the stock. Any thoughts on what is wrong? :(

when installing make sure that you install it properly.
there is a TIMING MARK (dot) in both the clutch boss and pressure plate.
same with stock boss and pressure plate. there is also a timing mark.

update, still no good. well have a machinist put the original bearing from the stock 4 spring into the 6 spring. the original bearing does not fit into the 6 spring. will update again tomorrow.

we had it machined so that the original bearing will fit inside, notice the bushing with the bearing, that is a GI pipe.

yung 6 na spring ang kinabit namin bro, yung patangay sa package. ginawa dyan is nagfabricate pa kami ng pushrod, ayaw kasi mag function ng maayos. ngayon perfect na. umaangat angat pa. hehehe.
