I have a 90 F 150 truck that was an automatic that was a 2 wheel drive, I swapped out the tranny and running gear from an 86 F 150 so now it's a 4 wheel drive with a manual tranny. I use the truck for plowing and the problem is that when it gets warmed up the clutch doesn't seem to fully disengage and shifting is a lot of grinding. Any thoughts? Is there some kind of adjustments on the hydraulic clutches.

Is the slave cylinder mounted within the bell housing? There is a special bleeding procedure published for that type of hydraulic clutch release. Fail to completely release is very often caused by air trapped in the line somewhere between the master cylinder and the slave. Instead of moving the throw-out bearing completely, the movement of oil is partly wasted by squeezing air. impish
