96 ford explorer manual. The car is VERY difficult getting into any gear now. Sometimes I ahve to use two hands just to get it in gear. Also going into reverse the gear grinds. Its seems that the vehicle shifts even harder as the car gets warmer. The clutch pedal feels fine. The transmission was replaced about 50,000 miles ago but not sure if the clutch was. I was thinking clutch or slave cylinder. Any suggestions. Thanks
