Hard shifting. New clutch master cylinder?

[Akedos]

I read through a few posts on here and it seems that if the clutch master cylinder or the slave fail then the whole system had to be replaced. I am having trouble shifting into most gears. It feels as though the clutch pedal is not working much at all.What part in this case gets replaced? Not the whole transmission right? What work and part am I looking to get a quote on?

You probably just need a new clutch. The pressure plates on mine were starting to go, and then the throw out bearing exploded on me one day- 200 miles from home. I found a decent shop where I was and it cost just under $700 to have a luk clutch kit installed.

Transmission shop says it is the hydraulics, so the slave and master. The shop owner apparently pulled some fluid out of them and then reworked some back in and now it's working better temporarily. The part is on expedited shipment from the warehouse to be replaced tomorrow or the day after. $270 installed. He said the clutch seemed to be in good shape. It'll be sitting until the work gets done, I'll tell you that!
