Had someone replace the clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing and now it will not go into gear while truck is running. Was wondering where I should start to find the problem?

Hello, I am Danny.

After having a clutch replaced sometimes the mechanical linkage your truck has needs to be adjusted just for this reason. When adjusting try to get it adjusted to engage in the middle of the pedal travel.Too close to the top runs the risk of burning up new clutch and too far to the bottom it will not engage (problem you are having). Hope this helps and feel free to ask any questions if needed. Thanks for using 2CarPros.
