Drivetrain prob?

Ok, Ive been searching for who knows how long and have found nothing pertaining to my situation. Its just as if my clutch was slipping however its more apparent in the lower gears 2nd mainly barely noticible in 5th where it should be slipping were it my clutch. Has anyone heard of this or experienced this, wtf?

it doesn't take much peddle pressure at all to make the clutch slip. In the shorter gears, maybe you didn't take your foot completely off the clutch peddle like you would in 5th?

What also contributes to clutch slippage is the restrictor in the hydraulics. Possibly you are feeling the slippage more because you are shifting faster in the lower gears and the restrictor only allows the clutch to engage at a certain rate.

Yeah, restrictor is out. Sure, if it had anything what so ever to do with shifting then that might make sense, anywho. There was no pressure on the clutch pedal while testing this, wot pulls starting at 2k rpm. Slipping in 2nd, less in 3rd, some in 4th, and none in 5th. Aka it should not be the clutch, 5th gear, highest torque load most slip. Not getting anyworse anywhere, stays consistant. From who ive asked Ive got T-case problems or rear dif. Now is there anyone who has experienced this or has insite to this.
