Default 1997 chevy 1500 4.3 V6 clutch problems

Hello all. New here and in need of help and guidance. I got a 97 1500 with the 4.3L V6 and the 5 speed transmission. Around two years ago I replaced the clutch, slave cylinder, throw out bearing, and I think the pressure plate. Now a week ago it’s having trouble going into gear. Most of the time it’s when im stopped. Other times but less frequent it won’t let me shift easily while moving. Also it all rather inconsistent. Doesn’t do it when it’s cold but after driving for a bit. I’ll have trouble then the next stop light it’s fine. The reservoir is full, the fluid does look a lil dark though. I’m hoping to not have to have the transmission dropped and replace parts that aren’t that old yet.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and have a nice day.
