today i was driving home doing around 65-70 and all of the sudden the car jerked forward like the brakes were applied really hard. then when i tried to downshift i couldn't get into any gears so i let the car just roll to a stop. i tried to leave the car in nuetral and let the clutch out, but the car still acted like it was in gear and tried to die. so i shut it off and looked under the car to see if there was something that would tell me what's going on. couldn't find nothing so i got back in the car and managed to force it into 1st and get going again, so i got up to 55 and drove her home. the car didn't do the jerking thing anymore, but now it's incredibly hard to get into any gear especially 1st and 2nd.

I have a act 2600 on there and ive adjusted the clutch rod and, iv'e bled the clutch already so any ideas would be appreciated. thanks
 
Maybe transfer case? Does your clutch feel different or is it just the shifting? Has the engagement point changed? What do you mean it's harder to get into gears?
 
well i went out to move the car and it went into reverse fine, then i went to put it back into first and now i cant even get it out of reverse, so the car is stuck in reverse where it sits. the clutch still feels like normal when i attempt to shift, so i dont know whats going on
 
does anyone else out there have any ideas on what could be going on with my car? thanks
