Clutch problems!!!!!!
Recently randomly I can't get my truck into gear. I push the clutch in and nothing happens. When I get it almost into gear it starts to move a little. After a little bit the clutch is normal again.
Today, I start it in gear and my truck rolls into a curb. It moved slowly because the clutch was slipping. I couldn't get it back into gear though.
So, I have about 35k miles on this clutch. I treat it very badly. I pop the clutch often.
What could be wrong?

Yep! I tried bleeding it a couple weeks ago and it didnt make a difference. It happens so randomly. The master and slave are so cheap I might as well just replace them.

Just as a thought, check for a broken clutch bracket. You'll need to look up under the dash with a flashlight and see if you can find a crack along the side of where the clutch pedal uprights meet the backing plate.

Providing there's enough play to hinder clutch movement...

Maybe your clutch is just burned up...
You say you abuse it by popping the clutch and whatnot, maybe there just isnt any material left on the clutch at all.

The clutch is fine. I can spin the tires all day long if I wanted too. And, the clutch wouldn't randomly wear out then work just fine shifting into gears.
The clutch bracket is fine...no cracks and not broken.
