If it was going to slip, it would most likely do it in the higher gears like 5th and 6th at high rpm. But maybe you find a sour spot in 3rd when the RPM / power & load all provoke it. 
What are the symptoms?
Does it slip when you acceleratre hard and then bite etc? |

Thanks Steve, Upshift to 3rd power up 3 seconds into third under acceleration then a quick slip.. then bite . not a very long slip at all.

That's the finger/ramp cam...tightens the clutch pack under forward torque. Pack starts out looser until there's enough torque being transmitted to actuate the clutch cams, then it tightens the pre-load on the clutch springs and the finally grab.

Did you get the problem sorted? If the slip is more than just once and starts to slip/catch while under throttle you might be looking at gear replacements.
My third gear fix:
