Tranmission problem???

I was driving my truck this morning, anyways as some people know my clutch is going in my truck from when I overheated it wheeling, I was driving it and when I go to accelerate hard, put it half way or to the floor, the rpms go up between 2 and 3 and the tranny feels like it wants to slip out of gear, but doesn't. It feels kind of like the tires just spin, and kind of shakes a little. This kind of bothers me, is this just clutch related? or flywheel related? or did I f*** up my tranny too Thanks for the help.

Flywheel resurface = $30 at a machine shop.

Clutcht kit = $230.
