I have a 95 ford ranger that I don't drive often with 37,500 miles and bought it new. The truck runs fine but if I use it for a few days in a row and not more 10 or 15 miles each day, it feels like the trucks clutch is slipping after the third day. I don't see any clutch fluid leaking and it is not low on fluid. The pedal is almost to the top when the clutch engages. Is it possible that the pressure plate or clutch to go bad with low miles on it. I don't drive it hard, but it does have some power addons, like a Paxton supercharger and headers, catback,etc. If it is indeed the clutch or pressure plate, should I go OEM or aftermarket?

Probably putting more power through the clutch than it can handle and it starts to slip.Since you have the add-ons, you may want to go with a stronger clutch to help put the power down.
