ok but the tranny was inspected a couple of months back and we did a rebuild but didnt change the clutch or anythin in that category. so why would the trany do that an the clutch has been goin out for about a year now but just recently it really started to act up (well before it broke)!!

well, every tranny has it's own value. sometimes a rebuild just doesn't cut it. it's like a smoker, sometimes they just die

I think you should get a new tranny.

more info.. when the cars not running can you shift through the gears at all? does the clutch pedal have any feedback or is it really easy to push to the floor? also is it making any weird noises now?

Yea the only thing a clutch going out will do is cause you to not be able to shift.
