I'm putting my truck back together and I just noticed, after I painted them, the upper spring mount for the clutch pedal is bent down (inside the cab, on the pedal asm, with a fully assembled vehicle, it's hard to get a look at). Now that I saw it, I remember from years ago when it was drivable that the clutch pedal would sometime get stuck down if you pushed to the floor, and I had to reach down and pull it up, it wasn't often, but it sucked when it happened. I'm sure the bend is that cause.
I've already nicely painted everything and am wondering if I should grind, weld a supplemental brace, and re-paint.
Has anyone else had this bent sprint mount? I'm wondering if mine was just a fluke from when somebody reamed the pedal when a clutch went out or if it's a common problem. I'm not worried about having it look nice, obviously it's under the dash, but that whole assembly was surface rusted probably because the factory just installed it uncoated.
