I have a 2000 suzuki grand vitara that has a problem going int gear
check and bleed the clutch system at the slave cylinder and if that dose not improve the clutch operation then replace the master cylinder. If the system is cable operated then replace the cable. If you have removed the clutch to replace it then the clutch plate is probably in the wrong way round and the centre is hitting on the flywheel bolts.

Stiff gears
You can try using synthetic gear lube, I have found it reduces shift effort by at least half when it is cold.
