I have a few thoughts for you to consider. My first question is the clutch disk in correctly? On some applications if the clutch disk is put in backwards it will not release because the hub is interfering with the flywheel.

By forcing it together you may have damaged the clutch disk by bending the hub area forward causing the clutch to bind up. The reason your PTO turns is that it is driven by the splined hub in the pressure plate and the hollow tube that drives the hydraulics and the PTO. The clutch shaft will interfere with the clutch disk before the PTO shaft in the pressure plate because of the additional length for the pilot bearing which brings me to the other thought.

The pilot bearing may be damaged to the point that it will not rotate freely. Since the outside of the bearing rotates with the engine, a bad bearing will not let the shaft in the middle stop allowing the transmission gears to stop.

Any of these will take a split to correct.
