Bleeding Hydraulic Clutch

I have a 1984 F150 With a 300 six and four speed transmission, my problem is the guy I bought the truck from replaced the clutch master cylinder but not the slave cylinder and they did not get it bled right. The clutch engages as soon as you start letting the pedal up and its hard to shift. The bleeder screw in the slave cylinder is stripped out. Is there another way to bleed the system or should I replace the slave cylinder. Thanks for any help you can give me.

With a new clutch master cylinder it would be a real good idea to replace the slave cylinder also.
