i have an 86 toyota 4x4 and it sounds like something is grinding when i press the clutch all the way to the floor it does it in every gear it even does it when im not in gear it still shifts fine and it doesnt make the sound when i dont mash it to the floor i just noticed it today when i cranked it up to move it to clean it down ive never heard it make this sound any help would be appreciated or advice on what to do thanks look forward to replys thanks
 
Not sure what it is but I'd pull the trans and investigate. Could be a really bad throw out bearing.

How many miles on this truck and how long have you had it?? From your previous postings It sounds like you recently bought a well worn truck, and seem shocked it has some issues? Lot's of great peeps and advice here, but I would recommend getting a service manual also ( preferably a factory one) for your truck if you want to keep it running and do your own repairs etc. It will save you alot of headaches and $$. Your clutch may simply need adjusting, or it may be getting worn out from turning big tires under a heavy foot, constant mud and water running and larger tires will take a toll on any rigs drivetrain fast.

well it has a lot of miles on it but every thing has been rebuilt or is new everything mechanical any ways it only does it sometimes i thought it was the clutch slipping but i figgure it would happen everytime i press it not only sometimes but thanks ill look into the clutch sittuation ive had it for like a week kinda a bummer this is happening lol but i guess you get what you pay for
 
its your throw out bearing in you clutch im having the same problem with mine. Autozone has a rebuild kit for $80 and its easy to change if you dont have any money you can ride on it for a while. Now i do know you have a safety cancel button to the left of the steering wheel press it when you turn the ignition on and it allows you to statr your truck with out pressing the clutch so it saves the clutch for a while
