Default 04' 4.7L 5 speed clutch replacement?

Hey Everyone,

I've recently been noticing a sort of jingling noise coming from the truck when i'm going in reverse slowly,
Just this morning I had some issues smoothly getting into 2nd and 3rd while starting out from a stop. 1st, 4th, and 5th all seem fine.
The only other complaint is if i'm parking the truck with the clutch pedal in, shifter in a gear and turn the key off, sometimes the truck will "bump" slightly forward even though the clutch is all the way in until the truck is completely off.

Help!

Usually the clutch slips as it wears.
It could be the clutch master/slave cylinders leaking down causing the pressure plate to engage. The jingling could be the release bearing "bouncing" on the release fingers.

Can you post an audio clip???

Agree with 00DakDan, sounds like hydraulics not fully disengaging the clutch to me. Must address why it's not fully disengaging before replacing the clutch or it will just kill/glaze the new one.
