stiff pedals

Ive had my 04.5 6spd dually for about 7 months now and its got about 10k miles on it, I have always thought the clutch and go pedal were a lttle stiff. Last week I bought an new 04.5 2500 with the 6spd and the clutch and go pedal seem effortless compared to my dually. Why would there be so much difference in the two??? If Im not careful how I shift the dually it will buck a little, but with the 2500 its very smooth. Dumb question, but is there some adjustments that can be made?? Thanks in advance!!!!
