Clutch issue

I just bought a 99 f250 super duty with 6 speed and it has clutch problem the clutch pedal goes about 1/3 of way down then drops to the floor and stays. I pulled slave cylinder and it has just as much resistance as a new one. my other thought was a spring internally in transmission. any other thoughts or do I just need to replace the clutch?

98% of the time this is the result of bad clutch hydraulics. There's a 2% chance you have a broken clutch fork.

I'd start with the hydraulics.

My guess is the tension is from the spring. Once vertical, no resistance and off to the floor the pedal goes. I'd check the protruding rod from the clutch pedal. Think, it broke
