Problem 1: Clutch slipping in 4,5,6 but grabs hard in 1 to 2nd. I just replaced the clutch in May of last year and up graded everything. Ram HD,no track passes.

Problem 2:There dirt in the clutch fluid. I took the cap off about 2 weeks ago and it was low and had a dirt ring where the fluid was,cleaned it the best i could and filled it up.

Whats wrong with my clutch?

your having the same problem im having... i hope someone knows the answer, my car is at the shop and just test driving it he is saying he thinks the output shaft is loose. I dont think its my clutch cause i have a spec III but it slips at low rpms in gears 3rd and above

for some reason a bad clutch will be more prone to slipping in low gear, low rpm....i have yet to figure out why

Problem 1: Clutches usually slip in higher gears. It's because there's more pressure on clutch at low rpm, high speed in a high gear. Your clutch is toast.

Problem 2: If your fluid level is changing you've got a leak. It's 1 of 4 things. Master cylinder, slave cylinder, hydraulic line between the two, or the reservoir and lines to the master. If the fluid has managed to work its way onto your clutch from a leaking slave that didn't help problem 1 any.
