Default Clutch not fully disengaging

I drive a 02 3.9L dakota with a 5 speed and just a day a go I drove to work as normal and tured my truck off and about 5 minutes later I had to run home so I started my truck it was already in 1st and as I took off when I came out of 1st I couldnt get my truck into any gear unless I mached the speed and gear just right and so I came to the conclusion that my clutch was not fully disengaged so I thought I might have got air in my line so I tryed to bleed it and found out that they come pre bleed so I had to get a whole new master slave clutch assembly and it didnt go away after instaling any thoughts of what else it could be

My eyes! Please for the love of all mankind, add some punctuation and use a spell check. That is damn near impossible to read.

Pre Bleed? I mean, could there be air in the lines ?
It's also possible you may have worn or defective release lever in the pressure plate.
Is there an adjustment on the release fork?

There's no adjustment on the hydraulic clutch.

It's unlikely you got air into the system since it wasn't opened. If it did get air into it, you've got a problem anyways.

Unfortunately it sounds as if you're going to end up pulling the clutch. How many miles are on it?
