i was recently driving my mt and all the sudden the truuck was moving but not like it should. its like it if you had stripped the the spur gear or somthing. i checked the gears, layshaft. and even took out the diff and all were fine. when i give it a litttle gas it goes but with no torque, and if i give it full throttle it goes as the same as if i gave it 1/4 throttle. could it be the clutch? does anyone have any thoughts?
 
what about the wheel squares setscrews? are the squares in the rim still good?

is the spur carrier stripped out, pinion? setscrews?

hold the truck and give it some gas and see if something is spinning inside either of those and see where the power loss is coming from. might be the clutch but you can eliminate on the way in

the motor still revs up doesn't it? tunes good? just tossing it out
 
Hey, those stock diff gears are really stong. When I thought I had stripped mine they ended up being like new inside.

Check your mesh between the motor and the layshaft gear. Sometimes with the plastic motor mounts, the tight mesh will come loose. This happened to me a few time till I bought the alloy motor mounts.

The other thing is that maybe your clutch is not engaging fully??

Just a few thoughts...
