Allright guys, here is what I found out. When you try to crank it the flywheel teeth turn but the pressure plate doens't. If the plate is bolted to the flywheel, that would mean the teeth are moving around the flywheel and basically I'll need a new one. Anybody agree????

Makes perfect sense to me ... doubt you could weld the ring back on because its probably hardened. I'd think about taking it back to where you bought it and asking them why it came lose ! I have seen a press on ring crack, and when it does that it will no longer hold.
