Even though the OP says this is not the case, I'd figured I'd answer this anyways...
If you look at the clutch disc hub, it's not symmetrical on the "snout".
The hub that faces the flywheel is shorter.
If you install the clutch disc the wrong way, this hub will ride on the eshaft, causing the clutch disc to never engage and mate with the flywheel (mating surface).
You can bolt everything in and not notice anything, cause the pressure plate will just push back on the spring fingers.
The only way you can inspect this is you'd notice the clutch disc face is not resting on the flywheel when looking through one of the "inspection holes" in the pressure plate cover.
Result?
The clutch will never engage, but everything (clutch hydraulics, fork, etc.) will work just fine.
