6spd/ clutch problems
i changed the clutch on my 2000 7.3 when it got really bad, when i pulled out the old clutch 1 spring had broke out and another one was half out, the pilot bearing was literally gone and there was metal shavings everywhere in there. (this was a week after i bought the truck) i also changed the master and slave cylinder prior to changing the clutch. once it was all together it seemed perfect for about a day, then started grinding a little bit when shifting, mostly going into third, but other gears also. shift forks mabey??

check the rod where the master clips on under the dash, if it is run with a bad bushing it will eat up the rod on the pedal,(this fixes that problem) ( FORD Clutch Rod End PERMANENT Repair powerstroke too. | eBay ) also check where the shaft goes through the pedal box, those bushings wear out and elongate the hole in the pedal box.
