Default clutch pedal is to easy!!! help

problem is the clutch still engages and disengages fine still but the clutch pedal is really really easy to push in. easier that the gas pedal! its really annoying and it just started happening. so i checked the clutch fluid and it was a little dirty so i did the ranger clutch care method and that didn't work so i tried to bleed the slave cylinder and that didn't work so im stuck! and now when i drive it from cold start up it has a little grind in second and 3rd but goes away as the car warms up. and at WOT going into 3rd also has a little grind that just started.. so im trying to get this fixed before i drive it anymore and i cant figure it out... its a 99 with 50k miles and has a textralia clutch. and a b&m ripper sts. cartek adjustable master and a new slave when the clutch was installed approx 10k miles ago

probley not the problem but, there is a clutch return spring, its prone to breaking. Mine broke with about 60,000 miles on the car. Might wanna check that.... just remove the plastic under the dash and look up in there with a flashlight

That's because your spring is broken. You have to buy a new one. It attaches at three points and one of the legs probably broke off on you.
