    If I recently had my clutch replaced (about 9 months ago) would they have changed my transmission fluid? I've owned the truck for about 2 years and have never changed my transmission fluid. Just wondering whether or not I need to considering the clutch was replaced not too long ago.

    They could have drained and filled it when they replaced the clutch, id check your paperwork if you still got it.. Given the age of your truck and not knowing mileage, I don't think it would hurt to drain and refill with some fresh fluid. I replaced my clutch at 150k I changed the fluid at the same time to Redline MT90. But some may argue its not really needed.. I guess it boils down to your peace of mind. Oil isn't that expensive and its pretty easy to do on a manual trans.
