clutch gets worse everyday now i can put into gear and not stall

my clutch became very worn out and i ordered my clutch when it started slipping. while waiting for it, i have been driving everyday because of school and work.

first, it only slipped a bit and as each day past, it got worse.

now im at the point where every gear slips and barely accelerates until about 3000rpm then it slowly accelerates.

then today, i put the handbrake up and put into first gear and let go the clutch and i didnt even stall. when i even put the handbrake down, it didnt stall and it just stays still until i gas it.

i just received the jwt clutch+flywheel combo today but didnt come with the allignment tool. Im actually taking it to where kris79 works at on monday and hopefully they the allignment tool for the clutch??

i am just wondering, if this is only my clutch thats worn out and that my transmission is still okay?

The fact that you can release the pedal and the car doesn't stall indicates that the disc is so worn that the plate can no longer apply clamp. This doesn evidence a transmission issue though it does make it clear that you clutch is done! Just have the new parts installed and all should be well. Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks,
