Did the clutch bracket break??

If it is not the Clutch Hydraulics then it is sorry to say most likely The clutch itself.

Be sure to double check every thing before starting to pull the transmission out.

Have you been able to put it in gear since you installed the new seat?

You don`t need to pull the bracket unless you really want to.

Getting into position to remove the bracket just push the pedal with your hand easy to see the bracket flex if it is broken.

Have a helper push the clutch while watching to see if the clutch Fork is moving like it should.

Is it possible that the clutch fork pivot ball broke?

Did you adjust the master pushrod freeplay to 1mm-5mm when you put the master in? Is this a new clutch too?

If you can't adjust the excess freeplay at the master, there's your problem.

When yall are measuring free play are you measuring to the point that there is some resistance or to when you can feel the throw out bearing engage the clutch fingers

Used or maybe the dealer.

You know with all these Clutches I changed on these never once did the free play need adjusted.

It only needs to be checked if you replace the clutch master cylinder.
