Question on Clutch Replacement

never changed a clutch with a multi piece fly wheel, how much play is there suppose to be? also how thick is the clutch disc suppose to be, mine seems to be worn to the rivets?? and should the crank have any play left to right in the car-move about .050 back and forth??
your directions for getting to the clutch were great but now not sure if that was the real problem,

If close to the rivets, the friction disc is likely worn. I don't have a thickness spec.

Dual-mass flywheels do have side to side movement when tightened down. This video shows how a Porsche dual-mas flywheel is checked, May put your mind at ease.
