How are the engine mounts? Any broken mounts?
Clutch grab can be the result of something going on with the pressure plate or oil getting on the pressure plate from a leak from either the engine or transmission.

No, they do not share the same fluid. The hydraulic clutch uses brake fluid and has a very small capacity. It sounds like you may have a leak in either the clutch master or slave cylinder. Once it sucks a little air in, you will lose the pedal, as is starting to happen to you.

If it's low, then you can't just fill it. You have to find out where it went, repair it and then bleed all the air out of the system.
