When you push the clutch does it squeal at all or does it make noises when it''s not pressed in at all?

I'm thinking your clutch disk is pooched.

Are you new to driving a stick? Have you gotten the friction point down on it?
Sounds like it could be you need a new clutch.

the clutch doesnt make noise, just had the ford dealer put a new clutch in it a couple months ago, cost 1,600.00. worked fine for a while then just started getting hard to put in gear.

Its possible its the clutch (I could tell if I test drove your car), but I would bet money that its the synchros.
