Well the clutch that you didn't replace last time, has gone. The High clutch is used for 3rd and 4th.
Have you ever checked the cooler in the bottom of the radiator for a blockage? The early models suffered from lining particles blocking the cooler. This starved the gear set of cool lubricating oil, so heat caused damage to the clutch and gear set.
