I'm just trying to thing logically about it and you changed xfer and dif fluid, nothing to do with the trans.

Look under the car I guess, see what's different.....something obviously changed and there has to be residue/fluid somewhere.
i looked for fluid but didnt see anything that allready wasnt their (bad rear main seal...) but i traced the clutch line and looked at everything i think it could be and didnt see anything out of the ordinary, i am just getting off work and will drive down to take a look now that it has been sitting over night, and see if their are any puddles..

Ok i poped the inspection hole and took a peek inside and everything looks ok but then again i dont have much experience with clutches. can some one tell me how i can tell by looking at it if the retainer clip is in place. i have a service manual but its not doing me to much good...

A friend and i just changed our fluids and IT DOES matter. I used a different combination of Redline than he did. He now has to work the shifter around before he can go into gear when it is cold.
