Not sure about your clutch situation sounds like the same thing with my clutch. But my buddy had the same problem with his oil pan so he brought it to our local toyota garage and they had to pull apart the whole front end to replace it. Took about 2-3 days
I had a ranger but sold it when I started college. Needed a good reliable truck and since toyota put new frames in it's like owning a brand new truck underneath, and we all know they run forever, and I Didn't want or need a full size truck.
