Do you mean the clutch won’t engage or disengage? Usually if everything was good before, I’d say an adjustment problem because something shifted or didn’t go back quite the same during remove/re install.

Maybe the arm that goes into the bell housing is not positioned on the pivot point.

Also you might want to check if the throwout bearing
is positioned on to the clutch fork arm correctly...

turned out to be just a stuck clutch , clutch in other foot on the brake and putting the truck in first gear and cranking it over got it un stuck!
