Clutch issue

[cjlloyd81]

About a week ago my tranny started getting harder and harder to get into/out of gear (i.e shifting, or going into reverse after coming to a stop). No leaks from the master cylinder, tho fluid level was low so I topped it off (didn't have time to diagnose it at the time).

When in gear the truck pulls hard with no slipping so the clutch itself is good, and being that there's no leakage from the master cylinder I'm wanting to condemn the slave. I'm gonna get under the truck in the morning and look for telltale signs down there.

If it ends up being the slave what advice do yall have on bleeding/installing one? The only manual vehicles I've driven have had linkage clutches so this whole hydraulic thing is a new area for me and I'd rather ask for advice before I beat my head off the driveway trying to figure it out on my own

Thanks everyone!
