Default Clutch Problem..

Hey i think my clutch is worn out but i am not 100% sure.. I took my truck out to run it and i notice every time i give it gas it dies out. I also notice the day before when it was running good i notice that it will slip a little then the truck will go. I also notice when i spin the spur gear i feel some tension coming from the clutch..

What could be my problem? Clutch needs new pads?

It's a possibility. It's a good idea to check clutch shoes and CB bearings at least after every gallon IMO. You can tell if the shoes are worn pretty easily just by looking at them...
