Having trouble with shimming and tightening up my Losi 4 shoe aluminum to this Nova Rolling. I’m using the Losi brass collet took the Nova one off the flywheel wouldn’t slide down far enough to catch clutch but with the Nova. Pulled crankshaft out and slide collet tight tightened clutch/flywheel down with clutch nut. Have one .2mm shim behind main rear bearing them 13T stock Losi clutchbell chbel Keeps it just off the flywheel so she spins free. Next I have the smaller outer bearing and then a variety of combos that won’t work. My problem is when tightening everything up it gets too tight and clutchbell won’t spin freely.
Is my crankshaft too short it doesn’t extend out past the front bearing? Ive tried it with a shin, no shim, the Losi plastic clutch spacer, without. Nothing works

Update, I ended up filing the collet down from 4.8mm depth to 4.4mm and everything worked perfect crankshaft cane out to about flush with bearing didn’t need any outer shims just used the losi clutch spacer and and the end play was perfect. Got the rolling 7 in and started break in using ty Tessmann method. I’m onto the 5th tank hopefully I can get a few more in this weekend. Thanks guys
