Hey WD's

Any idea what could be causing my 1st and 2nd gears to be struggling lately?
Did a recent trip to Lesotho, and used the clutch a lot climbing up Sani Pass, but I was wondering, could it be my clutch?

What sort of oil, or maintenance is necessary on Clutches, and where do I start looking?
It struggled to get into 1st, and 2nd sometimes, almost have to apply heavy downward pressure to get 1st, and reverse pressure to get into 2nd.

Please advise.

Thanks
