    Quick and to the point, I noticed my clutch was not acting as quick as it used to and it had a lot more play before it actually did anything, I looked and my reservoir was empty. Topped it off, it got a little better but I looked under my truck and I think I'm looking at my slave cylinder, which looks like I should replace it. Am I correct to assume this is my problem?

    The master cylinder has been whipping the slave cylinder a little too hard...

    How dangerous is it to keep driving with it like this for a few more days? I noticed the leaking 2 weeks ago and the clutch finally had problems 3 or 4 days ago and I have brake fluid in my truck

    Keep brake fluid handy and fill it before it runs empty. Should last the few days you need
