Slipping in all gears

I'm having a drivetrain issue and I'm not 100% sure where it's coming from. My drivetrain is slipping in all gears but there is less slip the higher the gear. 1st and 2nd gear are the worst. I can't build any boost at all in those gears. Fifth gear is really the only gear I can build any boost in and hold it without slip.

I recently replaced my master and slave cylinder and also got a stainless steel clutch line. It was running good for a bit but then I started getting deceleration chatter but now it's slipping like hell. The deceleration chatter went away though.

I haven't taken a look at it myself but would like some opinions on what to look for. Like I said I'm not 100% it's the clutch itself and it could be a tcase issue.

Last thing is that for example when i floor it and it starts to slip, both the rpm AND speedometer gauge will spike. I've had my clutch slip a little previously but never remember that the speedometer spiked, only the rpm gauge.

Your master is probably not adjusted right and pumping up.

Wow that's so weird, just as I read this I'm watching your video of proper clutch adjustment. I will give it a try sir! TY!
