It started a year ago when what I thought was the slave cyl went out. It got hard to shift, had to shut the truck off to get in to 1st or rev.
I replaced the clutch, throw out bearing, slave cyl.
Had trouble bleeding the clutch and finally got it to some what work. It got a little better over time but still was hard to shift. I bench bled the master several time, it would shift good for a day then get worse. I replaced the master and hyd line with a pre-bled unit but it still is always hard to shift. Doesn't grind but doesn't want to go into gear.
Pull up to a stop sign and push the clutch in, it creeps forward, hard to put into neutral some times but not always when first stopped.
Entirely ew clutch system, no air in it as far as I can tell, still doesn't feel like it's disengaging.
Any ideas?
