Now My Clutch Is Slippin""""

Now I got some new problems since I have put the truck on the road. It starts of just fine but when I get on her in 2nd or third gear she starts slipping. First gear is fine. I have adjusted the fork linkage to wear there it is not tight when not pressed in. Hoping that it was just not engaging all the way.,. Help... Is there a way I can kind of resurface it as I drive like on vw's or do I just need to through a new clutch in.... Help

If you have free play on the clutch pedal then it sounds like the clutch is worn out. Not much you can do except replace it I guess. I wouldn't drive it too much while it is slipping or you could end up needing a new flywheel if it gets damaged/warped. Phil.

Your clutch is trashed from the sounds of it. I know it sucks to tear back into it, but it is cheap insureance for a solid drivetrain thats not going to leave you somewhere when it finally gives up.
