first gen tacoma wont go in any gear

hey guys have a 97 sr5 5sd and lately has not been going into any gear. sometime i can drive it and then it wont go into gear. the clutch doesnt slip never makes a sound. im ready to replace the clutch but i thought i should get some insight first..let me know if you have any ideas thanks

 

When you say it won't go into gear, are you saying the shifter will not go into any position, or when you shift and let up the clutch, it won't move? Have you tried putting it into gear after shutting off engine? High possibility of a failed pressure plate, or bad clutch?

 

when the engine is off its go's into every gear great but sometimes when I'm driving it doesn't want to go. Yesterday I noticed it was finally leaking from the slave. Do you think it could still be the pressure plate?

 

If its leaking from the slaver cylinder that could be your problem. Failing slave cylinder won't release the clutch all the way

 

Any recommendations for a clutch I'm shopping around for one now.

 

OEM or Marlin Crawler would be my suggestion. Replace the pressure plate bolts and flywheel bolts. Turn your flywheel or replace it.

 

I have also heard good thing about exedy kits anyone ever use one
