So I ripped the xt mech off my Cotic soul with the help of a branch!! So I purchased a 10 speed clutch mech as a direct replacement. However when fitting the new mech, with the screw that lifts the mech clear of the frame and cassete all the way in I am still not clear of the cassette. I have never had this before. I noticed you can remove a small washer/spacer but I didn't on the last one and screw was only about halfway in.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong. Probably best going for a new chain aswell now.

Very simply you have fitted it wrong. Unbolt and then refit ensuring the black tab is against the stop on the hangar per the pic I just took below.

Looked at it again and I did just fasten it up wrong!!! That's what you get for rushing it in the garden with 3 kids pestering you.
