Dozer Needs Help, cluth feeling loose
alright guys this is my first problem ive ever had...
my clutch pedal is feeling loose, not the actual silver pedal itself, but the whole thing in general. i was on my way to work this morning and i noticed it was feeling different. So this has been on my head all day, i went outside and checked it out, the metal piece on the back of the clutch is getting loose, you know the part that has the little rod going into the firewall.
any ideas on what i could be and how i can go about fixing it, before the whole thing comes apart. sorry no pics as i dont have the cable to my phone nor do i have my camera with me.

is it the pedal itself? cus my pedal (silver thing) is holding up strong...i saw a diy and it looks like the pedal is self broke off, the thing thats loose on my car is the metal piece that you cant see, its up top and has a rod going into the firewall...
am i lookin for the reinforced clutch bracket or something else?

I'm assuming Jedi's Pm helped out.
Just take out the whole assembly and inspect it for damage.
also check on yrou clutch master on the engine side to see if any of the bolts got loose.
