I was driving home from work yesterday, i pushed in the clutch to shift from 1st to 2nd gear, and i hear a pop or snap (more felt than heard), and all of a sudden my clutch pedal goes limp.
I managed to drive it home in first gear very slowly, so when i began to park in my parking stall, i put it in neutral put on the brake and shut the jeep off.
I did some inspection but i can't see any fluid leaks under the dash, in the engine compartment or at the secondary slave. The fluid level inside the resevoir seems low, but i'm not sure if it was that way before or after this all happend.
Also... When i checked under the dash for leaks, i noticed that the clutch pedal is now stiff and won't budge (in the top position)
Does anyone know what it could be? Any help would be appreciated!
Yes it is a hydraulic clutch. I checked for leaks inside under the dash, and all the way from the master clutch cylinder to the slave cylinder on the bell housing, but didn't find anything.Yes it is a hydraulic clutch.

It's possible your clutch fork broke. Also, check to see if it's a hydraulic clutch. You could have a leak in the hydraulic system. Both would cause your clutch pedal to go to the floor.

do you mean it wont go into gear ? if so what gears ? it could be the clutch going out , if the pedal is soft or easy to push down than it probably needs a clutch. next time it wont go into gear try pumping the clutch or putting it from 2nd to 1st or what ever gear it has problems with
If the pilot bearing was the problem it would make noise with the clutch pushed and go away when you let it out. Have you checked the fluid level in the transmission?
Get the clutch slave cylinder and master cylinder looked at.One of the 2 has failed.If the pedal goes to the floor or is very loose,this is very likely the cause.Not an expensive fix.Hope this helps
Sounds like you are having a clutch problem. The sudden looseness in the clutch pedal indicates a problem with either the hydralic system, (slave or master or line) leaking or clutch pressure plate going out. Check your clutch fluid resevoir first, if low look for a leak under the vehicle, have a friend push the clutch and get underneath to find leak.
