clutch problems on my Daily Driver
So for wile now the clutch has been getting less and less responsive in my 97 S10 pickup. A few months ago i went ahead and purchased a Ram clutch kit for it. Well this morning it felt like it was on it last lim and when i went to leave work she wouldnt go into gear at all, i ended uo forcing it in 3rd and limping out of the parking lot and making the 15 mile trip home with 3rd and 4rth gear. At the stop lights it would disengauge just enough to not die out, but i have to force it into gear and to back up i have to put it in reverse before i start it. Ive driven autos forever with the exception of 1 05 sierra i had for about months but never had to do work on the clutch. it should be a cable driven clutch and not a hydrolic style right. An that being said a clutch kit that i purchased should solve my problems?

I called Oriellys and they said it didnt have a slave that its just a vaccum setup but most of those guys are idiots so a few more opinions would be great

Rockauto has an AC Delco slave for $83. Then I would buy the disc and pressure plate separately but that is me.
