Transmission Problems

I have a 1995 Ranger 3.0 5 speed. I was on my way home when my truck started making a clanking sound when I changed gears. The next morning I went to leave in my truck and it wouldn't take reverse nor any other gear. I've changed out the clutch, pressure plate, and throw-out bearing and did not get any results. I broke the quick disconnect hydrolic clutch line so I had to replace it. I then dropped the transmission again and replaced the slave cylinder and still no results. I then replaced the clutch master cylinder and still can't make it take a gear while the truck is running. I've bled the slave cylinder 8 times; it doesn't seem to tighten the clutch pedal like it was before I started. The only thing I haven't replaced is the transmission.

If anyone can tell me what I may have done wrong or something else I can do thanks.

Is there a lot of miles on the unit? Sounds like you've replaced everything you possibly can :worshippy!!! Was the unit run low on oil maybe? Possible bearing, balance/idler shaft, synchronizer issue. Any of those would warrant replacing the tranny :banghead: .
