Default LT80 Clutch adujustment HELP!!!!

I recently replaced the V-Belt on my son's 2001 LT80...Aditionally, replaced a number of parts due to damage/rust including; plate and spring limiter, Movable Drive face rollers (4) and plate, cover, o-rings.
I tried to salvage; Clutch Assembly (cleaning rust off springs, backing plates etc.) the pads didnt look too bad (have been replaced by previous owner as well as modification to taking out 2 rollers from Dr.).
After i put all back together all seemed to be in working order according to manual. However when i tightened the last nut which holds the Clutch housing, Plate and Spring Limiter the rear axle seizes (will not rotate). I loosen the nut and it turns normally.
Torque on this nut is 30-45 lbs. even when not torqued (hand tightened) same results as above mentioned.
Any advice, corrections will be greatly appreciated. Family is hoping to go riding (camping) over the T-Giving Holiday.
Thank you in advance.
Craig

Go to::Ohio Motorcycle ATV Dealer - North Ridge Yamaha Suzuki - Geneva, OH - Scooter Utility-vehicle, snowmobile
Look at the fishe (transmission 2) and see if your missing something or have parts in the incorrect order..
It would seem that your leaving something out.

Default Thank you

I in fact used the same document to order my replacement parts from the local dealership.
However, upon reviewing the link you sent it seems that their indeed may be one item i overlooked....(small washer).
I'm going to take it back apart and re-due it.
again, thank you for your time.
