I thought that because my shifter wasn't goin in gear that the problem would be either my clutch or slave cylinder.

When I would shift between gears,it would be like you have to push it into gear.And but now it wouldn't go into 5th & reverse.Could it be not enough gear oil,or the master cylinder or maybe a linkage in the transmission?

yes, it could be a bad slave from too much free play, could also be a failed clutch as well.

I changed my clutch,throwout bearing
And slave cylinder.And then I bled the
master cylinder,but the pressure on the pedal wasn't all that firm.And of
Course I go to check the shifter it would go in gears1thru4 but 5& reverse wouldn't..
Thanks a lot

if you have a new clutch, slave cylinder and free play correct and bled, the only thing left is the clutch master cylinder

the slave may not be moving from the bad master
