I never seen this before. And on a street truck driven by a girl.

 The bracket that the clutch pedle hooks to is broken at the bend between the clutch switch, and the return Spring. I am going to atemp to get the mig welder in and patch it back together. I just thought I would give some people a heads up, and ask if anyone has seen this before.

 It's an early 90 3.0 V6 extra cab 4x4. I am going to look at mine when I get a chance to see if it is showing a crack.

i had it happen to my 1980 two wheel drive.

i drilled and taped a block that fit between the bracket and bolted across then came up from underneath with a 1/4-20 bolt.  it was a pain getting in there with a drill but it fixed it.

Easy fix If you like to weld in a tight spot

Yep I welded it in place. Put some wet rags down to cover the carpet, but not enough. Oh well, beats paying someone to fix it.
