Stuck Clutch

I have an 03 3500 and have a problem with my trans/clutch. A couple months ago I replaced my clutch, pressure plate, and throwout bearing. A few days ago, while driving to work, the clutch would not disengage. I crawled under the track looking for possible clutch and/or slave cylinder leaks, but it all seemed to be in good shape (ie no leaks or physical damage). The clutch pedal still feels the same and i heard no noise or indications of bad throwout bearing.

Any guesses on what could be the problem?

Hey guys... changed out the clutch cylinder/slave cylinder assembly.... no luck.

The clutch is a stock unit
I have some +50hp injectors, but thats about it.
My trip to work is interstate and I really wasnt pushing the truck hard at all. It could have been slipping but if it was, it sure didnt seem like it.

When you say welded the two pieces together, what two pieces are you referring to?

Thanks. I guess the only way to get to the bottom of this is to yank the trans back out......
