14 inch clutch disc order

I'm putting in my 14 in Easy pedal clutch but it's been in my garage for a while and they're a little rusty

I can see the first plate says flywheel side and I thought on the second plate I saw intermediate side. I tried to wipe some of the rust off and I wiped off the writing, but I'm pretty positive it said intermediate side. The part that accepts the splines on the intermediate side hits the splines on the front disc when I put it together rather than the disc itself hitting the intermediate plate.

So basically I can read the writing on the first disc, that one is okay. The second disc has a long side for the splines and a short side. The side that said intermediate plate has the longer splines, so the side for the pressure plate has short splines.

Is this correct and if so how can this work? For the clutch to engage disc 1 has to be up against the flywheel, the intermediate plate has to be against disc 1, disc 2 has to be against the intermediate plate and the pressure plate has to be against disc 2. Here are photos.

 

The roof is leaking on my garage and the moisture got to the plates. I think it looks worse than it is because the splines are completely clean and the face of the pressure plate and the intermediate plate are completely without rust.

It's not possible to put the long snout toward the intermediate plate because the clutch will never engage, as the snouts hit each other.

Yet when I flip it the clutch disc still won't completely engage the intermediate plate.

Maybe I should just think about buying a new clutch.

 

Thank you everyone for your help.

I cut down an old shaft as my alignment tool. I lined everything up and tightened in the proper sequence and it's situated the way it should be.

The pressure plate and the intermediate disc and the splines are absolutely completely clean and rust free.

This was a brand new clutch that I never used but I bought quite a few years ago and the wetness in my garage made it look worse than it is. The inside of the pressure plate cleaned up like brand new.

@BoxCarKidd I think you are exactly right. I think the plate for the second disc was marked incorrectly. As I looked at the discs and how they fit together I could see the way that they were supposed to go.

Thanks again for the help!

I absolutely 100% agree. @Goodysnap has given me excellent advice in the past and I would trust whatever he says.

You, he, and a few others have been a great help when I really needed it.

Sometimes a little advice goes a long way.
