Clutch pedal issues?

So drove my jeep to work today which is really the first time I have driven it this year.
On the way all of a sudden the pedal resistance dropped. I shoved it out of gear and pulled to the side of the road.


I immediately thought it was the clutch pedal had detached from the master cylinder as the bushing had broken years back and I had done the Ford gas fitting (there is a hose clip that fits to keep the pedal attached to the cylinder rod) fix back then and...

P.s. any pics of the Jeep on its new kicks?

The fluid was about an inch down below the fill line. I pulled off the whole assembly yesterday and there was no leakage from what I could tell but I ordered a new one anyways since I am pretty sure it was the original assembly and they aren't horribly expensive. Figure it is cheaper than being wrong.

Oh yeah the tires. Noticeably heavier but not as loud as the KM2s (although they were older so I suspect the Pitbulls will get louder too) it is more of a higher sounding rumble. I need to find the time and yank the rear springs and see if I get any interference.
