clutch judder

Hi i am new to all this... I have not had my land rover long and have had some problems since I brought her. She's quite old (m reg) but really low milage 127,000 with one owner from new. The man's had everything done to it that ever needing doing but as im finding out possibly by garages that were not great... For example the water pump was replaced 6 months ago but the gaskets were not replaced (instant gasket behind the water pump). He only went to work and back in it (2 miles) so when I've asked her to work she three a wobbler and started using more water than the niagra falls (gaskets now changed), now the clutch was replaced two years ago but since towing my horse box a good 50 miles at the Weekend it's started to have a slight judder pulling off into first and changing from first to second (but not all the time). Am I right to presume that this means the clutch is dodgy and should I start looking for quotes to replace it.... If so where's the best place and what price would you expect to pay? Thanks and sorry for the long story....

I've only had her about a month. There's no leaks anymore (had to change the gaskets with my trusty manual as guidance and then all the return fuel lines) so I've become obsessed with checking for leaks on her .... I've not touched the low range / high range it's still in N and living smack bang in the middle of the fens so the only thingthing code to a hill is a slip road up to the parkway.. so another dumb question from someone who's partner is working flat out on the harvest and not home , where would I check I the hydrolic levels for the clutch? Thanks for your patience with me

Found it with the trusty manual. When it stops raining I will check the levels in it
