I have '06 Silverado, I just recently got the slave cylinder replaced, and a new clutch assembly put in and resurfaced the flywheel. The problem I'm having now is that when I try to start off in first gear the truck shudders like it's going to stal, I know that it's probably me needing to get use to the new clutch. The big problem though is when I go in reverse, it does it even worse no matter how much gas I give. Note that it stop as soon as the clutch is all the way out. I was wondering if this is normal or if the shop that put the new clutch in used a lighter duty one or if they didn't replace something properly.

EIther the flywheel was cut too far or the pressure plate is bad. My guess is the pressure plate.

Let me know what you find. Also, this is NOT normal.
