Archived Clutch has no pressure, stuck with 34' trailer

[DHayden]

just so happens I have my trailer hooked up and my clutch starts going out, started loosing pressure gradually but I was trying to get it home. Pressure started disappearing but would build back enough for me to shift and get on the highway, lost all pressure on the off ramp.

It figures clutches are the one area I know nothing about, Linkage? hydraulics? I checked reservoir which i assume is for the clutch, its a bit low but I dont think low enough for me to loose pressure. The clutch itself I'm sure is fine, it has never slipped. Any ideas appreciated.

Simple system... resevoir... clutch master cylinder(2 nuts) attached to pedal... . slave cylinder (2 bolts)in transmission housing... any fluid leaks???sounds like lost your master or slave... . about an hour job to replace both. Most important. . get the air out od the lines. Went with NAPA... get a discount... cost about $120 for both. OEM part... same as Dodge wanted to sell me for a lot more. Good luck.

Went through the same problem. Master was leaking. My replacement was a single unit, so no bleeding (got it from Clutch Dr. IIRC)

Spooky feeling having the truck start to creep forward with the pedal depressed. No kicking it into neutral either, Stall it or turn off the truck.
