Maintenance/Repairs

Hi, I am getting older by minute so here goes. I have a Dodge Ram 50 (Mitsubishi), Awesome vehicle. Inexpensive , tough as nails, breaks down - limps home. I bought it new in 1992.It is manual transmission , cable actuated. New clutch and cable. my pedal is becoming non functional. My clutch cable is extended all the way out and has spacers on it to help the clutch engage.This is not a sudden , new, problem. It has progressed. Several months back I began to hear the under dash assembly squeak when I pushed on the pedal, but, I was sick and had to have surgery, so, wasn’t able to pursue the problem aggressively.I feel like there is a spring under the dash that has broken, worn, lost proper adjustment. I don’t know ,and, spec. illustrations do not show a spring, but , the sound I heard was the complaint of a spring. If this is amusing , I have more comedy to come. I also have a 1973 Opel Gt and a 1987 Trans Am.
