Clutch problem

So my clutch seem to be getting worse and worse. it felt like it was trying to grab more and more then all of a sudden I hered a popping sound near my feet and the clutch always stayed engaged. I replaced to master cyclinder and bleeded it. No change what so ever. I see the arm moving at the belhousing though its not a big movement. I dont know how much its supposed to move though. Basically im wondering if the clutch is going out since its not disengaging and I cant shift because of that reason. If this is the clutch How to do it would be awesome. I know I gotta disconnect the driveshaft and thats about it.

By the way its a 89 toyota pickup 3.0

Maybe the clutch pedal bracket failed? Its been known to happen.

I just replaced my clutch a week ago, it was a pain. The front driveshaft was easy to get off but the rear was a pain. So were the top 2 17mm bolts for the tranny.

Ford, you need to put your info in you sig.

I had a clutch plate break last week. When it broke there was no more shifting. Clutch replacement isn't that hard if you have a couple of things like a transmission jack, 2ft of extension to reach the top two bellhousing bolts, and a little time to search. I highly recommend Marlins clutch kit. I would recommend changing the front output shaft seal on the transmission, and of course the rear main seal as well.

I have every tool available to me known to god soo thats not a prob. Its the yota tech knowledge i need. I will also say that the clutch in will not start any more. I have to use the cancel out button. I never had to do that until I hered the popping sound. Im as lost about this. Im close to buying the clutch kit and installing it. Im just hoping that fixes it.

is the clutch pedal pushing the sensor in on the pedal assm. have you checked that the clutch bracket isn't broken like Tubb suggested.

Dude...read the posts! Tubbyfatty told you to check your clutch BRACKET under the dash. It is a COMMON break & a PITA to remove but not as much as the clutch~ That's where I'd start.
