Ford Ranger - Clutch???

I'm new to the group, so if this question was answered yesterday, sorry. My truck is a: Ford Ranger 1996 2wd 4.0 liter V6 5 speed transmission An older gentleman sold me this truck because he had problems pressing the clutch peddle. It was tight. Now the clutch has little resistance. I mash it to the floor, it engages from the floor, and the gears grind but not all the time. It's difficult to shift. This morning I couldn't get it in reverse. I shut off the vehicle, put it in reverse and finally got it on 3rd gear and drove to work in 3rd gear. Any suggestions??? Thank a lot.

Welcome to the site! As best you can avoid grinding gears. Didn't check yet but this probably has an hydraulic clutch linkage and master and slave cylinders to actuate it. There should also be a flex hose in the line that is involved too. Check what you can like brake parts for right now. At the moment all the trouble may be contained with linkage issues. Hit back with what you find - check fluid level - usually DOT 3 brake fluid but check cap which should say right on it, T

I was pretty sure it was hydraulic linkage and most problems are just with that. Now - the first order of events should be to bleed it out and see if that helps or brings on totaly linkage failure which is about what you first described. Pinning down what component or more is the trouble could be difficult. You said it was "stiff" once and I will guess that if pedal returned to up top that could be issues at the slave cylinder end OR don't forget the rubber flex hose can fail unseen not allowing fluid to pass either direction. The three components that are common are the , slave, master, and hose. Any leaks would be good clues or anything that might be bent is a possiblility. Clutch itself could have issues especially if this has been a low use and exposed to severe rusting conditions or has been submerged in water for some reason. Need you to make the observations starting with bleeding out the clutch, T
