clutch/slave issue
The basic problem im having is not being able to get it in gear. i can shift one gear at high rpm shifts but when i go to shift into the next gear it will not go in. the pedal stays at the floor until i pull it up with my foot. after that, normal driving it engages way down at the floor instead of half way up where it normal does. after one or two shifts of it engaging at the floor, it will go back completely normal again, engaging half up. my fluid is a little murky. not black though. is this slave, clutch, or fluid issue? looking for input or advice on this. thanks in advance

Try the ranger clutch care.. If that dont work.. Bleed the hydraulics.. If that fails.. Time for a Master cylinder replacement.. Recommending a Tick Adjustable.. If that dont fix it.. Slave cylinder probably needs replacement..

The slave is around $100-$125. The Tick master is an awesome piece. I just finished my RST twin install with new slave this morning (already had the Tick) and so far everything works great. As mentioned the LS7 clutch kit is around $500 with the flywheel. You're going to still end up close to $1000 with the LS7, flywheel, new slave, and Tick master. You could always try keeping the stock master but upgrade the clutch and slave to see if that solves your problem. If not you can always add the master later without dropping the trans.

I agree...start saving, do it right....I didn't wanna fork over that $1200 but I know after tick re-builds my tranny and all parts are in, I'm home free from any of these shady problems, hopefully for a LONG time
